For FTTH or backbone networks, choose an OTDR with 1310/1550 nm dual-wavelength capability. Dynamic range determines the maximum measurable distance. 22. An Optical Time-Domain Reflectometer (OTDR) is an essential tool for fiber optic network testing, troubleshooting, and maintenance. It sends a laser pulse down the fiber and measures the reflected light to map splice losses, connector losses, bends, breaks, and end-to-end fiber length — all from one end of the cable. But with dozens of models on the market boasting different specifications like dynamic range, pulse width, and dead zones, how do you know what is the best otdr for. When choosing an OTDR (Optical Time Domain Reflectometer), prioritize models with at least 35 dB dynamic range, short event dead zone (<1.
