Do you need to reduce downtime on your fiber network? How much money would you save if you could determine the health of your fiber LAN quickly, with comprehensive analysis at the touch of one button? Fluke Networks' leadership in cable and network testers led to a breakthrough in fiber trace analysis.
Automated Optical Time Domain Reflectometer (OTDR) trace analysis lets network owners rapidly determine the health of a fiber LAN by translating raw data into simple PASS/FAIL results. The white paper, "Become an Expert Troubleshooter with Advanced OTDR Trace Analysis," explains how an OTDR detects and analyzes test results. It also describes the implications of expected, as well as unexpected, trace data from fiber networks.
This paper is part two of a two-part series -- download part one: "How to Choose an OTDR to Test and Troubleshoot LAN Infrastructure" to learn more.
