These refer to the direction of the test results. If THIS END on the main tester is set to END 1, END 1-2
shows results for the main tester's output fiber; END 2-1 shows results for the input fiber. The results are
reversed if the main tester is set to END 2. Press
A
to switch between the results for each fiber.
When bi-directional testing is enabled, Output Fiber and Input Fiber refer to the fiber connections at the
main tester after you swapped the fibers. The tester shows results for both test directions. Press
A
to
switch between the results for each fiber.
PASS: The measurement in the column is within the limit.
FAIL: The measurement in the column exceeds the limit.
RESULT The loss, length, or propagation delay result for the fiber. Propagation delay is half of the time taken for
the signal to travel from the tester's OUTPUT connector to the INPUT connector (minus the delay of the
reference test cords and adapters). "Too High" is shown if the loss is too high to measure.
If loss is negative, set the reference and test the cabling again. See Table 7-10 for details.
LIMIT The maximum loss, length, or propagation delay allowed by the selected test limit.
MARGIN The difference between the limit and the measured value. Margin is negative for measurements that fail.
N/A The results show N/A for values not defined by the selected test limit.
