    Barbados OTDR test module dynamic range 35dB

    With a 37/35dB dynamic range at 1310/1550nm, the EXFO OTDR ensures precise testing over long distances, making it perfect for demanding fiber optic installations. The Dynamic range of an OTDR Note that in an existing network, the cable may have more loss, because of its age, and of course the more splicers and connectors in the network will add additional attenuation and thus make the measurable distance shorter. The dynamic range is an important characteristic since it determines how far the OTDR can measure. The distance range or display range sometimes specified is usually misleading as. An important OTDR parameter is the dynamic range. This parameter reveals the maximum optical loss an OTDR can analyze from the backscattering level at the OTDR port down to a specific noise level. Operating at both 1310nm and 1550nm, this OTDR module enhances performance for various applications, ensuring.
