A small form factor pluggable (SFP) device has an embedded optical time domain reflectometer (OTDR) for detecting anomalies along an optical fiber. The SFP device has a plurality of optical subassemblies (OSAs) that are used to transmit an optical data signal at a first wavelength, transmit an optical OTDR signal at a second wavelength, and receive an optical data signal at a third wavelength. The OTDR signal is effectively isolated from the data signals based on wavelength, and samples of returns of the OTDR signal are analyzed to detect at least one anomaly along the optical fiber.
