If available on the OTDR, activate the algorithm that automatically summarizes the entire fiber link trace (fiber lengths, splice loss, event reflectance, end-to-end link loss, and optical return loss) in tabular form.
Optical Return Loss (ORL) The OTDR generally tests ORL by calculating the total all the light reflected from reflective events plus the total backscatter from the entire
