    Brief

    Trinity College Dublin seeks vendors to supply, deliver, install, and commission a Coherent OTDR Fiber Sensing Module for distributed fiber optic sensing applications. The module must integrate three complementary optical time-domain reflectometry technologies—Attenuation (A-OTDR), Brillouin (B-OTDR), and Coherent (C-OTDR)—into a single compact system. The solution should enable real-time, phase-sensitive monitoring along standard optical fibers for applications including smart infrastructure monitoring, structural health monitoring, and protection of critical assets. The system must allow firmware modification access for customization and future updates. Qualified suppliers should have experience in fiber optic sensing systems and precision optical instrumentation.
