How an OTDR Functions
An OTDR can be compared to a radar unit The OTDR sends laser light pulses on the FO
cable to be tested (the end of the cable is open). These light pulses are reflected more or
less strongly by all problem points along the cable. A meter evaluates the intensity and
propagation time of the reflected pulses.

Figure A-5 Representation of the OTDR measurement results
The figure above clearly illustrates that the power of the launched light reduces constantly
along the fiberoptic link. There are significant jumps at the coupling points of the fiber.
