Ive done a lot of these 100G 80k links and its not likely dispersion
causing your problem. Its more likely the opposite. If you have segments
of NZ fiber "Non-zero dispersion-shifted fiber" you can have issues.
After looking at your OTDR it looks to be a mix of different fiber types
thats how
Out of curiosity, what did the provider tell you about this trace? The -20 and
-15 reflectance stand out pretty loud and clear. If their OTDR has a “smart”
mode it would have flagged those as failures. If they didn’t see a problem
here they might need a test device smarter than they are.
wow thanks for the detail, I will work with the boss and the fiber provider
to try to address some of those problems.

As an OTDR trace it looks really good, but your problem might be at event 18
and/or 19. I don’t know how much you wanted to know so I apologize if I’m
starting too far towards the beginning.
#18 is around 100m from the end and has reflectance of -21.36. That’s crappy.
The -15 below it
