2. OTDR
2.1 Summary
OTDR is an instrument to understand the uniformity, defect, fracture, joint coupling and other
properties of optical fiber through the analysis of the measuring curve. It is used to measure the
attenuation of optical fiber, attenuation of connector and fault locator, and view the loss
distribution along the length of optical fiber, it is an essential tool in the construction,
maintenance and monitoring of optical fiber.
2.2 Warning
When using OTDR to measure optical fiber, except 1610nm wavelength product, working
light in the measured optical fiber couldn’t exist. Otherwise, the measuring result won’t be
accurate, and the instrument may be damaged perpetually.
Don't look at the optical interface directly or look over the optical interface through optical
instrument.
When the OTDR is working, do not look at the laser outlet directly;
After using, cover the dust cap onto the optical outlet of the OTDR
Don't directly look at the disconnected terminal of the being tested optical fiber. If possible,
make the disconnected terminal of fiber optical point to a non-reflective object.

2.36 Instruction of Events Categories
Events on optical fiber indicate these abnormal points that brought loss or sudden change of
reflection power beyond normal scattering of optical fiber material, including various kinds of
connection and bending, loss of flaw or fracture on the optical fiber link.
Event points displayed on the screen is the abnormal points in the optical fiber that led to
deviation of trace, which are classified with special symbols on the trace.
Events include “reflection event” and “non-reflection event”.
Initial Event
“Initial event” on the OTDR trace is the event that marks the starting point of optical fiber. Under
default conditions, “initial event” is located at the first event (usually be the first connector of
OTDR) of the tested optical fiber. The event belongs to reflection event.
End Event
“End event” on the OTDR trace is the event that marks the terminal of optical fiber. Under
default conditions, “end event” is located at the last event of the tested optical fiber. The event
is called optical fiber terminal event (usually be the end or fracture point of the tested optical
fiber), which usually belongs to reflection event.
Reflection Event
When optical pulse energy is reflected (such as on the connector), reflection event occurs. On
the trace, reflection event is shown as peak signal, as shown in the picture.
Non-reflection Event
Non-reflection event brings loss on the whole transmission link of optical fiber, but no light
reflection. On the curve, non-reflection event is shown as drop of optical power, as shown in
follow picture.

Event Inspection
OTDR sends optical pulse into the optical fiber that waited for inspection, then, begins to accept
the returned optical signal immediately, and calculate the distance of “event” in the optical fiber.
The further the event is, the longer the time for returning back to OTDR will be. The distance can
be calculated according to the time when receiving the event.
Through inspecting the curve of the reflected signal, the optical transmission characteristics of
optical fiber, connector and joint can be confirmed.
