Contact UsHome / Does the OTDR fiber optic tester need calibration
The OTDR is the only test tool that can measure and locate reflectance problems on individual connectors throughout a fiber network. Like any precision instrument, OTDRs need periodic calibration to ensure their distance and loss measurements remain accurate. Device calibration: Regular inspection and calibration of all measuring devices Database systems: Central storage of all measurement logs for later comparisons When selecting an OTDR system, municipal utilities should consider the following criteria: Dynamic range: Determines the maximum measurable. Learn to certify, maintain, and troubleshoot your fiber optic systems better with industry-leading OTDR test equipment and procedures. Power on the OTDR and verify the battery is charged and the test display is functioning.
