EXFO FTB2 OTDR Simulation

Step 1: Configuration & Routing Target

Select Target Address (Location A):

Select Target Building:

Circuit ID numbers:

CK-FIBER-

Use the Connector Inspection Probe to verify optical cleanliness. Clean the core using the One-Click tool if contamination is found.

Inspect the fiber to begin.

Select the correct standard dual-wavelength combination required for single-mode fiber infrastructure testing according to specifications:

Adjust the acquisition variables dynamically below to clean up tracing artifacts before triggering full trace acquisition block:

A launch fiber separates the first link connector from the OTDR dead zone so its loss and reflectance can be assessed.

Test Distance (Range Span):

Pulse Width Injection Window:

Averaging Scan Duration:

RT MODE // Adjust settings to resolve events

The trace acquisition completed successfully. Review event mapping calculations below:

Event Index	Type Identifier	Distance Metric	Loss (1310nm)	Loss (1550nm)

File naming instructions:

The file naming structure should be similar to this:

LocationA-LocationB_Port/fiber##
or
LocationB-LocationA_Port/fiber##
with the relevant file type.

the first Location should be the origin of the trace, followed by the the destination

Extension type:

Verify the training record below. This exercise does not export a real instrument SOR/TRC file.
