Replacing Fiber Reference Test Cords
Choose replacement fiber optic reference test cords that
meet the following requirements:
• Core and cladding size: match the fiber to be tested

• Reference test cord length: maximum 5 m
To ensure optimum performance from your tester, get
replacement reference test cords from Fluke Networks.
Using the Smart Remote with an
OptiFiber
Certifying OTDR
You can use a DTX Series smart remote with a
DTX-MFM2 or DTX-SFM2 fiber module as the remote for
a Fluke Networks OptiFiber Certifying OTDR. The DTX
remote takes the place of a second OptiFiber tester for
measuring loss and length with the OptiFiber loss/length
option in Smart Remote mode. You can buy a smart
remote separately for this purpose. See the Fluke
Networks website or contact Fluke Networks for details.
