Using the ChannelMap Function
The ChannelMap  function creates a map of the cabling
under test. The map shows the fiber links and
connections in the cabling. This function is optimized for
resolving connections as close as 1 m apart on multimode
fiber and 2 m apart on singlemode fiber.
Reflective events that do not appear to be connectors are
not shown on the map. Loss events are also not shown.
Note
Since the ChannelMap function identifies only
reflections, it is not appropriate for finding fusion splices
or angled physical contact (APC) connectors.
Figure 14 shows the equipment needed for ChannelMap
tests.
