OTDR testing steps for optical cables

OTDR testing steps for optical cables

FOA "Quickstart Guides" are short, simple guides to basic fiber optic tests. All are written in the same straightforward format: what equipment do you need, what are the procedures for testing, options in implementing the test, measurement errors and documenting the results. OTDR settings are a balance between dynamic range, acquisition time, spatial resolution and accuracy. This guide will explain what an OTDR is, what is the purpose of an OTDR, and how to use OTDR to test fiber optic cables. It works like "radar for fiber optics," sending light pulses down the fiber and analyzing the reflected light to measure loss, locate faults, and verify installations.
