The optical reflector plates 11, 12 and 13 are connected at the ends of the optical fiber cables 8, 9, and 10, respectively. An optical waveguide directional coupler 2 which has at least one input common terminal A and at least two output terminals B and C is provided between an OTDR 1 and a measuring optical fiber cable 5. The output terminal B is connected to an end of the optical fiber cable 6, and the output terminal C is connected to an optical reflector plate 4 through an optical variable attenuator 3 which can changed the optical attenuation of passing light. The OTDR 1 supplies a light pulse to the input common terminal A, and measures the optical attenuation of the measuring optical fiber cable 5 by using differences in the intensity of reflected light pulses, which are reflected at each optical reflector plate 4, 11, 12, and 13.
