BLACKSBURG, VA, May 11, 2005 - Luna Technologies, a Virginia-based fiber optic component test and measurement equipment manufacturer, has been awarded the 2005 Lightwave Attendees' Choice Award in the Test Equipment category for the second consecutive year. Luna's new Optical Backscatter Reflectometer (OBR) was voted as the top instrument by conference attendees at this year's OFC/NFOEC held in Anaheim, CA March 6-11, 2005.
"Lightwave's Attendees' Choice Award is designed to recognize the products that OFC/NFOEC exhibit attendees believe show the most innovation and usefulness for their applications," says Stephen Hardy, Editor of Lightwave Magazine. "The fact that Luna Technologies' Optical Backscatter Reflectometer won recognition in our Test Equipment category demonstrates both high market visibility as well as potential for significant acceptance within its application niche."
Luna's OBR is a failure analysis tool offering unprecedented diagnostic capabilities to the manufacturers of fiber optic components and assemblies. Using the instrument, designers and manufacturers can peer into the heart of optical components, modules and assemblies to measure minute reflections with 125 dB sensitivity, 60 dB dynamic range and as low as 10 micron spatial resolution. This product extends from 30 meters up to 300 meters of optical length with zero dead-zone offering sub-millimeter resolution —improvements that increase product quality and reduce test time.
The Lightwave Attendees' Choice Awards are designed to recognize achievement in the eyes of those who matter most -- the people who buy and use optical components, subsystems, systems, test equipment, design tools, and manufacturing equipment. Only those attending the show were eligible to vote.
