For over 60 years, BICSc has been an industry leader in education, standards, and best practice, and this document combines intelligence, experience, and knowledge from highly regarded experts.
Deploy Tier 1 testing (Optical Loss Test Set) to measure absolute insertion loss across every fiber strand. For long backbone runs, execute Tier 2 testing using an Optical Time-Domain Reflectometer (OTDR) to visually map anomalies, splices, and connection attenuation points along the physical fiber path. Administration Guidelines
