IDK what you mean by PON features unless you want an inline unit to watch the traffic. Veex just came out with one that will do that. I don't see the need, but it is cool.
We bought the one (or one like) Cassidy linked and then bought this second: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0CW3B9ZM8/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_search_asin_title?ie=UTF8&psc=1 Cassidy - get a super cheap/fast PON meter that just reads the light from the OLT rather than waiting for the OTDR to boot. Or just clamp and see if there is light - https://www.amazon.com/YEDEMC-Optical-Identifier-800-1700nm-Functions/dp/B09JLL6NPM/ On Tue, Oct 29, 2024 at 4:45 PM Cassidy B.
