Location optical cable fault

Home / Location optical cable fault

A VFL is used to detect faults, breaks, or bends in fiber optic cables by emitting a bright red light that is visible even through the fiber's jacket. Locating fiber cable problems can be a real challenge for a technician! Before accessing a cable, some important things may need considering: Is the situation all an initial install, or is (some of) the link in service? Is another route available to take traffic while the link is being worked on?This document describes the guideline for locating the fault in optical fiber cable after installation or during maintenance of the cable. You use OTDR fault location to quickly and reliably find problems in fiber optic cables.
