Good Reference Values
For Smart Remote and Loopback modes, these are the typical
ranges for reference values:
• Multimode 50/125 μm fiber: -19.4 dBm to -26.5 dBm
• Multimode 62.5/125 μm fiber: -17.5 dBm to -23.0 dBm
• single-mode fiber: -1.0 dBm to -6.0 dBm
For Far End Source mode with a CertiFiber Pro source, reference
values must be in these ranges:
• Multimode 50/125 μm fiber: -19.4 dBm to -26.5 dBm
• Multimode 62.5/125 μm fiber: -17.5 dBm to -23.0 dBm
• single-mode fiber: -1.0 dBm to -9.7 dBm
If your reference value is outside of the applicable range given
above, clean and inspect all connectors then set the reference
again. Do this even if the tester lets you use the value.
If your test reference cords and connectors are in good condition,
and you use the correct procedure to set the reference, the
reference value will not change by more than approximately
0.4 dBm.
How to See the Reference Values
• After you set the reference, tap View Reference on the SET
REFERENCE screen.
• After you do an Autotest, tap the result window for a fiber,
then tap VIEW REFERENCE.
