Launch Box Q-Fiber is a section of a fibre-optic cable of a proper length ended with connectors, through which we connect the reflectometer to the measured line. At the beginning section of the fibre-optic connection measured by a reflectometer we encounter coat-type modes, which are strongly attenuated and cause the reverse distribution of high intensity. For this reason the detector is in a saturated state and does not react to light intensity changes. The beginning part of an optic fibre is the so-called “dead zone”, in which no events are detected. The application of a tape leader Q-Fiber by complete covering of the dead zone makes it possible to correctly measure the fibre-optical line.
