          Fiber Optic Cable Test Method:
          After the cables are installed and terminated, it's time for testing. For every fiber optic cable assembly, you will need to test the continuity, end-to-end
          loss and troubleshoot the problems.                 fiber optic tester will help to do this step more efficiently.

                    Continuity test by MT-7501 / MT-7505               End-to-end loss test by MT-7601 / MT-7602
