Certifying Fiber Cabling
Certifying Fiber Cabling
The Autotest runs the tests required to certify that fiber
cabling meets a particular standard. You run the Autotest
in Smart Remote, Loopback, or Far End Source mode,
depending on whether you are testing duplex cabling,
spools or patch cords, or single-fiber cabling.
Autotest in Smart Remote Mode
Use Smart Remote mode to test and certify dual-fiber
cabling. In this mode, the tester measures loss, length, and
propagation delay on two fibers at two wavelengths in
one or both directions.
Figure 5 shows the equipment required for testing fiber in
Smart Remote mode.
