AI Technical Summary
In fiber optic networks, existing technologies struggle to effectively distinguish fiber optic cable lines and detect whether the network has returned to its optimal state. OTDR tools are limited in their effectiveness in locating and identifying incorrect or incomplete interventions.
A housing is provided, comprising a guide member, a fastening structure, and a grating. A mechanically induced filter (MIF) is generated on the optical cable via a translation mechanism, and the filtering effect is detected by optical reflectance measurement test. An alarm is generated to identify and restore the optical cable status.
It enables effective differentiation of optical cable lines and accurate detection of network status, improving the maintenance efficiency and accuracy of optical fiber networks.
