THE NEXT GENERATION FIBER SENSING SOLUTION
ONYXTM the flagship platform from Sintela now delivers a customizable all-in-one, simple and cost-effective solution for your distributed fiber-optic sensing needs.
A step change
Representing the next step in the evolution of Distributed Fiber Sensing, ONYX™ converts existing telecommunications fiber-optic cable into a rich vibration, detection and ranging system.
By harnessing the power of quantitative data it accurately classifies and geolocates all moving objects and potential threats within 6 metres both in real-time and historically, putting you in control to respond appropriately.
Developed by Sintela’s global experts in Distributed Acoustic Sensing (DAS) ONYX™ significantly improves performance and provides a future proof solution that can stand alone, integrate or be embedded into existing telecommunication and fiber systems.
Quantitative measurements | ONYX™ is a fully coherent, phase-based DAS system which enables the use of sophisticated event classification algorithms to achieve a low nuisance alarm rate.
Standard 100km – 130km range | Two 50km – 65km (depending on applications) fibers can be used simultaneously, monitored from a single ONYX™.
Industry leading sensitivity | Capable of resolving an axial strain of 1.5 pico-strain using standard single-mode optical fiber.
Integrated compact design | All the optical sensing components, electronics and processing hardware have been incorporated into one compact unit.
Small form factor | Using only 3U of rack space and weighing less than 17kg, ONYX™ is easy to transport and once installed has a small footprint.
