Troubleshooting a Live Passive Optical Network with OptiFiber® Pro HDR OTDR - by Fluke Networks

Sometimes, you have to troubleshoot a PON network that’s live. Watch as our own Jim Davis shows how to identify a live network, and measure the received power using the CertiFiber Pro module. Then, he’ll demonstrate how to use a filter and a 1625 nm source to find events on the live network.

Hi, is that filter called a "SC Fiber Optic Reflector for Remote Monitoring of FTTx". In order to test with 1625nm do I need to get one that blocks my OLT @1490 ? Do you have any spec to share?

[@alexandruhatagan]

Hello Jim. Please let me know if it's a must to use the Green Filter, you have used, when troubleshoot live fiber. Or you can test live fiber without the filter too. Can we purchase this filter from Fluke? Thanks in advance

Great video and great product, however couldn't I just turn those wavelengths off to avoid the error message?
