 Launch + Fiber + Tail: Use this method for links that have
different connectors on the near and far ends of the fiber.
 Manual Entry (APC): Lets you enter the lengths of the launch
and tail cords without doing an OTDR test to find the ends of
the cords. See “How To Enter Lengths Manually” on page 327.
When you use launch/tail cords that have connectors with low
reflectance, such as APC connectors, the tester possibly will not
find the correct launch and tail events. If this occurs, enter the
lengths of the cords manually.
Note
Launch + Tail compensation usually gives the most
accurate measurements.
