Equipment for restoration

Testing and troubleshooting

To be able to solve the problems of a cable network and carry out its restoration, it is essential to have the appropriate testing equipment. An OLTS must also have a power meter to test the power of the signals and thus determine if the problem is in the electronic system or in the cable network. A total failure in all the fibers of the cable network means a break or a cut in the cable. In the case of cables in the internal plant, the location is usually simple if there is a visual fault locator or VFL,

For longer cables, it will be useful to have an OTDR. External plant networks must use the OTDR to document the cable network during installation. Thus, during a restoration, a simple comparison of the installation date with the current paths will be sufficient to find the problems. OTDRs are also capable of detecting problems of lesser severity, such as those that arise when a cable is twisted or strained and generates a greater loss, which can also cause network problems.

Tools and components

Once the problem is detected, it must be repaired. For this, it is necessary to have the right tools, supplies, and trained personnel available. In addition to the necessary testing equipment to solve the problems, tools for splices and terminations are required, including a fiber optic fuser for cables in the external plant. Components will also be needed to make the joints. At each installation, a reasonable additional amount of cable and installation hardware must be separated and stored for future restorations. Some users store supplies for restorations along with a documentation in a sealed container ready to be used. It should be noted that the connection cables( fiber optic patchcord) that connect the electronic system to the cable network, may also be damaged, but are not considered repairable. Only have the spare parts available.
