Fiber optic cable survey instrument to find break points
An Optical Time Domain Reflectometer (OTDR) is a valuable fiber optic testing device used for accessing network construction, identifying fiber break points, measuring cable lengths, and calculating relative optical power losses. Fiber optic cable is a type of cabling that contains one or more optical fibers for transmitting data at high speeds and/or over long distances using light. These fibers are most commonly made of glass and are very thin, typically less than a tenth of the width of a human hair. Fluke Networks has a wide range of Fiber Optic testing products to help certify that power losses are within standards and to troubleshoot broken and high loss links on single-mode and multimode fiber all with ease-of-use, accuracy, and durability. Designed for efficiency, this tool easily identifies breaks, bends, and other signal losses in fiber optic cables.
