31、following minimum feature set: a) the ability to measure type A1a or A1b IEC 60793-2-10 fibres; b) a programmable index of refraction, or equivalent parameter; c) the ability to present a display of a trace representation, with a logarithmic power scale and a linear distance scale; d) two markers/cu

32、rsors, which display the loss and distance between any two points on a trace display; e) the ability to measure absolute distance (location) from the OTDRs zero-distance reference; f) the ability to measure the displayed power level relative to a reference level (for example, the clipping level). Ca

33、libration methods described in this standard may look similar to those provided in Part 1 of this series. However, there are differences: mix of different fibre types, use of mode conditioner or different arrangement of the fibres. This leads to different calibration processes as well as different u

BS EN 61746-2:201161746-2 IEC:2010(E) 7 CALIBRATION OF OPTICAL TIME-DOMAIN REFLECTOMETERS (OTDR) Part 2: OTDR for multimode fibres 1 Scope This part of IEC 61746 provides procedures for calibrating multimode optical time domain reflectometers (OTDR). It covers OTDR measurement

35、 errors and uncertainties. The test of the laser(s) source modal condition is included as an optional measurement. This standard does not cover correction of the OTDR response. 2 Normative references The following referenced documents are indispensable for the application of this document. For dated
