Available on our OTDRs since 2006, the linear view simplifies the reading of an OTDR trace by displaying icons in a linear way for each wavelength. This view converts the graph data points obtained from a traditional single pulse trace into reflective or non-reflective icons. With applied pass/fail thresholds, it becomes easier to pinpoint faults on your link.
This improved version of linear view provides the flexibility to display both the OTDR graph and its linear view without having to toggle to analyze your fiber link. Although this linear view simplifies the OTDR reading of a single pulse width’s trace, the user will still need to set OTDR parameters. In addition, multiple traces must often be performed in order to fully characterize fiber links. See the section below to learn how iOLM can do this automatically and provide more accurate results.
