Recently many people asked me what is OTDR on my Facebook. Today this article will give you a detailed introduction of OTDR. What is OTDR? An optical time-domain reflectometer (OTDR) is an optoelectronic instrument used to characterize an optical fiber. An OTDR is the optical equivalent of an electronic domain reflectometer. It injects a series […]

What Is OTDR and How Does It Work?
What Is OTDR? OTDR, short for optical time-domain reflectometer, is an optoelectronic instrument used to characterize an optical fiber. It can be considered as the optical equivalent of an electronic time-domain reflectometer. OTDR injects a series of optical pulses into the fiber under test. It also extracts, from the same end of the fiber,light that […]
Using An OTDR To Be An Expert In Fiber Link Testing
When talking about optical time-domain reflectometer (OTDR), you might see it as complicated and dear. In actual fact, you could think like this for example it is similar to the copper tester and it is a chance to grow my business. Fiber link testing may be new to some contractors, but the right equipment could […]
The Core Technology Of WIRING
1. High-precision Optical Time Domain Reflectometer(ODTR) OTDR technology through sending a test signal in the measured line while monitoring signal in the line of reflection phase and intensity. If the signal through the cable encounter mutation of an impedance, part or all of the signals will be reflected back, the reflected signal delay, size and […]
Cable Testing With Fluke Cable Tester
No matter installing new cable, or troubleshooting the existing cable, cable testing plays an essential role in the process. Common tests for datacom cabling include length, wiremap, attenuation, NEXT, DC loop resistance, and return loss. When doing cable testing must with the Fiber Optic Test Equipment, and the Fluke Cable Tester is popular. As networks […]
Fiber Optic Testing Equipments And Guidelines
Once the cable plant is installed and terminated, or likewise fiber optic cables get damaged as the time passes by. It is recommended to test the fiber optic segment. Thus it’s of prior need to get them tested on a regularly basis, so that possibilities of hindering data transmission efficiency can be lowered down or […]
