An optical time-domain reflectometer (OTDR) is an optoelectronic instrument used to characterize an optical fiber. An OTDR injects a series of optical pulses into the fiber under test and extracts, from the same end of the fiber, light that is scatter. Reliability and quality of OTDR equipmentThe reliability and quality of an OTDR is based on its accuracy, measurement range, ability to resolve and.
