Abstract

There is provided apparatuses to detect occurrence and location of damages on optical fiber links in advance by converting an optical span in optical network to an interferometry based sensing media. The interferometry based sensing media may enable detection of mechanical perturbation or mechanical vibration occurred on optical fiber links across optical network. The system employed with the interferometry based sensing media can detect occurrence of mechanical perturbation or mechanical vibration as well as discover the location of such event occurred using standard interferometry based sensing techniques.
