Abstract

See full text

An apparatus and method for testing a fiber optic component having two ends includes a device having a sensor, an alarm, and a connector assembly having different types of connectors each being operable to connect the device to either end of a corresponding type of fiber optic component. Upon a connector of the connector assembly connecting the device to the second end of the fiber optic component and upon a light signal being transmitted into the first end of the component for the component to conduct to the second end of the component, the sensor determines a power level of the light signal at the second end of the component and the alarm generates an alarm signal when the power level of the light signal at the second end of the component is greater than a given threshold.
