134 AXS-100 Series

Reflective Event (Possible Echo)

This symbol indicates a reflective event that can be a real reflection or an

echo produced by another stronger reflection located closer to the source.

³ In the example above, the launched pulse hits the third connector, is

reflected back to the OTDR and reflected again into the fiber. It then

reaches the third connector a second time and is reflected once more

to the OTDR.

The application would therefore detect a reflective event located at

twice the distance of the third connector. Since this event is almost null

(no loss), and since its distance is a multiple of the third connector

distance, the application would interpret it as a possible echo.

³ A reflectance value is specified for reflective events (possible echo).
