A colorful Data Center

Color provides quick visual identification. Color coding simplifies management and can save you hours when you need to trace cables. Color coding can be applied to ports on a patch panel: patch panels themselves come with different color jacks or have colored inserts that surround the jack. Cables are available in many colors (the color […]

OTDR Basic Principles

An OTDR sends short pulses of light into a fiber. Light scattering occurs in the fiber due to discontinuities such as connectors, splices, bends, and faults. The OTDR then detects and analyzes the backscattered signals. The signal strength is measured for specific intervals of time and is used to characterize events. The OTDR calculates distances […]

Trouble shooting for EXFO OTDR

Problem Cause Solution The application displays a message indicating that a “Non-resolved fiber end” event has been found. The fiber under test is too long. Ensure that the fiber under test is shorter than the maximum length the OTDR can measure. The application displays message indicating that a “live fiber error” occurred and the fiber […]
