General Setup Instructions: (Steps 1 to 4, refer to Figure 1)

1. After gathering all required materials mentioned in the table, boot up the FX150/FX150+ OTDR. If FX150/FX150+ is

already booted up with OTDR application open and MPO switch is disconnected, exit out of the active application

to Home menu. (Figure 1)

2. Connect one end of the Micro-USB (B) to Micro-USB (B) cable from the FX150/FX150+ OTDR port to the OX-MPO-

12 Switch port.

3. Attach one end of the 1 m

SC-APC to SC-APC simplex patch cord

from the OTDR port (SC-APC) to the SC-APC port

of the switch.

4. Attach either one of three cases to the MPO output port of the OX-MPO-12 Switch

a. MPO/APC to MPO/UPC hybrid cable for launch cable, and MPO/UPC cables for FUT (Fiber under test) and

receive cable. Alternately, another MPO/APC to MPO/UPC hybrid cable can be used at the receive end.

b. MPO/APC ends for launch cable, FUT, and receive cable.

TECHNICAL NOTE: Title Page | 2

c. MPO/APC to simplex cable fanout 2x (SC-APC, SC-UPC, FC-APC, FC-UPC, LC-APC, LC-UPC…) and FUT.

5. On the OTDR’s Home Menu Screen, select the Expert OTDR tab. (Figure 2)

6. Select wavelengths to test (1310 and 1550 nm supported only). Navigate to the MPO Tab when the Expert OTDR

application loads. Users can also select MPO Auto in Mode under Test Parameters and Start to test all MPO fibers.

7. Choose from the dropdown menu the MPO connector fiber count (8 or 12). Select what individual/all fibers to test

from the MPO control. Press Start MPO to run test. If no fibers are selected, the user is prompted to select at least

one fiber to run a test.

8. Tap the stylus on the left <and right >arrow keys to move the cursor to view each individual MPO fiber test results

(1 to 12). This will change the MPO fiber number results viewed on Linkmap, Events, and Measure Tab. The colored

outer rings and colored boxes are pass and fail markers to indicate an event on a trace has passed or failed based

on P/F Thresholds criteria defined from the Setup parameters. View the Linkmap Tab or Events Tab for full

information.

9. To see trace, LinkMap, Event results filtered for a specific wavelength, use the Traces Tab and search for the

corresponding “JobName”->MPO fiber->test wavelength.” Select Activate. (Figure 10)

10. The following results were autosaved, but the user can manually save results by pressing Save… in the Results Tab

Menu. (Figure 13) The MPO results are grouped under one CableID, 001-smf-28_250m, shown below. Users can

upload measurement results to Fiberizer™ Cloud or into USB storage through USB export button.
