Cable Installer Network Owner
The chart above is a summary of a study from NTT-Advanced Technology that polled
network owner and cable installers on the sources of network failures
98% of cable installers and 80% of network owners answered Yes to having
contamination be the root cause of a network failure.
Impact of Contamination
Some Images from FIPs
No fiber image to be seen very dirty Clean fiber and ferrule
Smeared fiber image needs cleaning Spots of dirt on fiber face
Connector Issues
Dust/dirt residues transfer:
If not cleaned properly:
Residues will transfer and may create permanent damage when mating

ORL vs. Video Feed
Why should ORL be reduced to a minimum?
Strong fluctuations in laser output power;
Distortions in analog video signals (multipath
interference (MPI));
Higher bit-per-error rate (BER) in digital systems;
Potential permanent damage to the laser.
Important: Measure ORL in the
same direction as the
transmission of the 1550 nm
video signal.

Fiber Categorization
Total Link Loss & Reflectance OTDR
Testing from the optical network terminal (ONT) provides an OTDR trace
that is easier to interpret.
Chosen 1625 for many reasons 1) single wavelength time saving !! 2)
Future troubleshooting lot easier (benchmarking), 3) in and out service
test possible

OTDR
How does an OTDR Work?
Pulse versus resolution and dynamic range
Short Pulse : more resolution but less energy
Long Pulse width: more energy but less resolution
10 us pulse
20 us pulse
Short pulses will give a better resolution but less dynamic range:
OTDR specifications & limitations
- Pulse width vs. Dead zones and Dynamic range
Long pulses will give a better dynamic range but less resolution:
Two connectors 3 meters apart End of link (patch panel)
Connectors
are
measured
for distance
and marked
as separate
events
Connectors
are
merged
and
identified as
one event
End of fiber is not reached due
to low power of short pulses
End of fiber is reached and located
when using a larger pulse
5ns pulse
30ns pulse
Macrobends
Normal OTDR trace (tested at 1310 nm only)
Physical - Optical Fibre (OTDR)
1625 nm
1310 nm
1550 nm
1310 nm: normal OTDR trace
1550 nm: huge event loss (Macro bending)
1625 nm: Use on live Fibre network
Macrobends
Using a Visual Fault Locator (VFL) to Locate Macrobends
Dont forget:
1. Maximum distance reach (straight fiber) is approximately 5 km
2. Through a 1 x 4 splitter = 4 times weaker
3. Through a 1 x 8 splitter = 8 times weaker
4. Through a 1 x 4 and 1 x 8 splitter =
32 times weaker
What if we had a
multipulsewidth OTDR with
smart event recognition?

Compectitor = Linear View
over 5 years!!!!
Sxx is only a linear view
Sxx is not intelligent (it uses parameters entered by the user)
Sxx is not multi-pulse
Sxx does not have complete and detailed diagnosis
Sxx does not provide full fiber characterization (fixed pulse
width recipe)
Sxx is nothing close to our iOLM!!!
Do these icons really help technicians ?
Did they find all the faults ?
Was the OTDR set with the right
test parameters ?
Only 1 in the market!!!

Maintenance and
Troubleshooting Phase
1.Most common troubleshooting methods
2.Power assessment
3.OTDR Live testing
Trouble Shooting
No communication between OLT and ONT
PPM-350 to verify optical signals.
OTDR to localize break.
Increased BER / slow data rate
If a signal level is out of the transmission window (above or under), BER
may increase.
The PPM-350 is the best tool to monitor each signal level.
OTDRs can be used to localize fault.
Macrobendings
A VFL can be used to find and correct macrobends in splice trays.
OTDRs can be used to detect and localize problem.
Bad Connectors
A fiber probe can be used to find and clean dirty connectors.
