Abstract: One or more embodiments are directed to apparatuses and methods of evaluating an endface of an optical communication link, such as a fiber optic cable. In at least one embodiment, a camera probe includes an imaging device that includes one or more feedback mechanisms, such as an alignment feedback mechanism that communicates alignment information regarding an alignment of the optical communication link under test with an image sensor of the camera probe. The alignment feedback mechanism may be visual and/or aural. The alignment feedback mechanism may provide directional information to the user indicative of a direction to move the imaging device relative to the optical communication link. In addition or alternatively, the feedback mechanism may include a focus feedback mechanism that communicates focus information regarding a focus of the endface in an obtained image of the endface.

Abstract: One or more embodiments are directed to camera probes and methods for visually inspecting an endface of an optical communication link, such as a fiber optic cable. Generally described, the camera probes and methods are directed to projecting light to an endface of the optical communication link from a first direction and at a first angle of incidence and projecting light to the endface at a second direction and at a second angle of incidence. A defect on the endface casts a first shadow when the light is projected in the first direction and a second shadow when the light is projected in the second direction. At least one of the first and second shadows is analyzed to determine its length. Using the length of the shadow and the known angle of incidence at which the light is projected, a height or depth of the defect is determined.

Abstract: A self-contained calibration method for improving stability of an optical source in an optical network test instrument includes performing a temperature sweep test of the optical source. Optical output power of the optical source is periodically measured. A temperature correcting value is generated based on the measured optical output power. The optical output power of the optical source is adjusted by applying the temperature correcting value to obtain a substantially constant optical output power of the optical source.

Abstract: Apparatus and methods for testing network cabling includes processing circuitry that receives an indication of a user-selected network test of a plurality of network tests. The respective network tests have respective sets of test requirements with different levels of rigor. The test circuitry conducts a wire map test to identify which network tests can be conducted. Thereafter, a common set of test results is produced based on measurement of a common set of parameters pertinent to the network tests that can be conducted. The processing circuitry evaluates the common set of test results with respect to the respective sets of test requirements to determine one or more passing network tests. A plurality of test reports corresponding to the plurality of network tests is graphically displayed along a curve having a common center, wherein each test report indicates whether the corresponding network test is a passing network test.
