Subject: [AFMUG] Optics with built in fault detection 




The product in this video is stated by the manufacturer to have a built in 
"micro OTDR". Such that the equipment can detect a fault and report how far 
down the line the fault is.

Spec sheets seem to say that the "micro OTDR" is a feature of the SFP module. 


It seems useful in that you could dispatch the field tech directly to the fault 
location. Is there an industry standard for something like this, or is it 
something where you have to be vendor locked to get it?
