Optical Explorer 91
5Testing Fibers
The OX1 offers different test functions providing you with the level of detail
you want to see when testing a fiber link.
Note: When a measurement is underway, it is automatically stopped as soon as
you open the power checker or the light source tool.
The table below presents each test functions.
Test Functions Characteristics
Flash Advisor
For length, IL, and ORL.
³ Very fast measurement time.
³ The link assessment is always performed using the
EXFO Advisor settings. The rating displayed suggests
that the link may contain faults.
Fault Xplorer
For length, IL, ORL, and
fault exploration.
³ Fast measurement time when no problems are found
on the fiber link.
³ Localizes and identifies the fault types on the fiber link.
Link Mapper (Pro units
only)
For length, IL, ORL, and
mapping of all detectable
elements.
³ Since the unit identifies and measures all elements on a
link, the duration of the measurement is systematically
longer.
³ Identifies, measures and locates all detectable elements
on a link.
