Hi Kevin, Excellent video. I found it very helpful to be able to see the interface of this MAX-740C. Do you think we can explore the iOCC functions? Thanks

[@KevinPeres]

I am glad you liked it. I did a video on the iOCC the stand alone version the interface is the same. I will dig it up

amazing video, Kevin Just a quick question: if I have an inline amplifier on my network, will the OTDR signal get amplified by EDFA to travel long distances on a long haul network?

[@KevinPeres]

@@mthokohlongwane2029 I am glad you liked the video. An OTDR will not test through an EDFA. While some OTDRs will test with an active signal on the line they will not test through an active device.

thank you, Kevin. How would I test using DWDM OTDR from the DWDM line system that has a pre-amplifier and a ROADM?
