Turn OTDR traces into clear distances for cable runs. Pick time units, fiber index, and splice margin. Round-trip divides distance by. Lead-in fibers are useful to locate short distance faults and making loss/attenuation measurement in real time mode. The easiest and most accurate way is to perform an Optical Time Domain Reflectometer (OTDR) trace of the actual link. This will give you the actual loss values for all events. By measuring the time, it takes for this reflected light to return, the device can determine the distance to those events within the fiber.
