Run OTDR traces

METER

Characterize the network, and measure the total
length of the fiber link

Capture endface images

Images of endfaces show quality of terminations

CREATING A TRI-REPORT

GATHERING TEST DATA

TEST PROCEDURES

STEP 1 – CAPTURE ENDFACE IMAGES

Fiber endfaces must be inspected separately by a fiber videoscope
capable of:

– capturing endface images in either

.JPG

.BMP

format, and

– downloading the images to a PC.

NOTE: Videoscopes are available for purchase from OWL, but any
vendor’s videoscope can be used.

HELPFUL TIPS TO STAY ORGANIZED

– inspect the fiber ends in the same order as the fibers will be tested
– name the endface images similarly to the fibers to be tested
– store the images on the PC in an easy location to remember

STEP 2 – RUN OTDR TRACES

Run OTDR tests to characterize the network and measure the length of
the fiber link.

NOTE: OTDR traces are required for Tier 2 certification

For questions about testing fibers with the OTDR, see the OTDR MODE
section.

In FULL MODE, OTDR traces are taken as a part of the process.

In CERT MODE, OTDR traces must be acquired separately.

STEP 3 – CERTIFY THE CABLING

Measure the end-to-end loss with a power meter and light source for
PASS/FAIL testing (also referred to as Tier 1 certification).

Cable certification can be done with either CERT or FULL mode.
