Still, length is not an exact science with OTDRs. Especially if it is a long
shot.
Every fiber has a different index of refraction and velocity factor. And these
characteristics vary along the entire length of the fiber.

We had a $300 OTDR. The only thing it didn’t do was estimate length very well
if it worked at all.
My friend asked how much money we’d save if we dug up the wrong lady’s yard to
replace a fiber that wasn’t broken.

Yeah I’d love if I could find one of those cheap OTDR’s at 1650nm. Last time I

I think our definitions of "break the bank" might be a bit different. ;-)
This equipment looks interesting, but I have a feeling it isn't going to
fit the budget. Plus I need something that can be portable.

I know Exfo has units with an optional PON port for connecting to a live on-net
fiber and testing. Maybe this is more or less standard anymore, my current

We’ve been getting these smaller OTDR/VFL/OPMs from Amazon for our field techs.
This way they can see if there’s a problem with the drop at least. If it’s
anything past that, the splicers with the fancier/costlier OTDRs get involved.
Price point is right and it does what they need it to do.
