Fiber testers are devices used to measure the performance and quality of optical signals.
They feature functionalities such as an optical source function that generates light and transmits it to optical fibers, an optical receiver function that receives light signals from the optical fibers and measures their power and quality, and a loss measurement function that measures losses when light passes through optical fibers to evaluate the quality of connections and cables. Additionally, they include functionalities like reflection measurement to measure reflections in optical fibers and identify faulty connections or terminations, and pulse measurement to measure the speed and timing of optical pulses and evaluate the timing characteristics of networks.
Utilizing these functionalities, fiber testers are employed in the installation, maintenance, and troubleshooting of optical fiber networks. They are also used for network quality management and compliance testing with standards.
