Example Use Case
Short Fiber Link Testing & Equipment Interface Matching
In testing an FTTH drop cable or a cabinet-to-patch panel link, a technician may need to connect an SC/UPC OTDR port to an LC/UPC termination point. This 300M OTDR launch cable provides just enough fiber length to properly settle the OTDR pulse and bridge connector types without introducing unnecessary length or signal loss. Its compact design is ideal for use in confined environments, like data centers or residential wiring closets.
It also doubles as a receive cable when testing from the opposite direction, allowing full analysis of far-end fiber events.
