Testing & Certification
Ensure Peak Performance. Verify Every Connection.
At Harbros Solutions, we offer comprehensive fiber optic testing and certification services for both new and existing infrastructure. Whether you’re verifying a new install, troubleshooting an old connection, or handing over documentation for a project closeout—we make sure your fiber network meets or exceeds performance standards.
We test single-mode and multi-mode fiber using calibrated, professional-grade tools to accurately measure signal strength, splice quality, and distance to faults. And we don’t just give you numbers—we give you answers.
Our Fiber Testing Services Include:
- OTDR (Optical Time Domain Reflectometer) Testing
Pinpoint splice loss, connector reflection, and breaks over long distances
Ideal for backbone links, outdoor fiber, and troubleshooting unknown issues - Power Meter & Light Source Testing (Tier 1 Certification)
Accurately measure signal loss (insertion loss) from end to end
Required for most commercial installations and handoffs - Visual Fault Locating (VFL)
Laser-based detection for quick identification of breaks, bends, or bad connectors
Great for short runs and fast diagnostics - Loss Budgets & Certification Reports
We document every strand, connector, and splice—complete with labeled test results
Perfect for contractors, IT teams, and compliance requirements
When Should You Test Your Fiber?
- After New Installations: Ensure everything is terminated correctly and ready to go
- During Network Upgrades: Confirm older fiber can handle higher speeds
- After Repairs or Storm Damage: Validate continuity and performance
- For Preventative Maintenance: Catch small issues before they cause downtime
- Before Project Turnover: Provide documented certification to your client or GC
