Various embodiments of an apparatus for measuring a characteristic parameter of an optical fiber are provided. In one embodiment, an apparatus for testing an optical fiber comprises: a light source enclosed within a housing and configured to couple to a first end of the optical fiber; a detector enclosed within the housing and configured to couple to a second end of the optical fiber; and a non-planar table defining a curved path, the non-planar table attached to the housing and configured to guide the optical fiber along the curved path in three dimensions. In this way, an optical fiber may be deployed for testing with minimal manual manipulation of the optical fiber. |
