A method for testing a fiber drop terminal from a single geographic
location may include placing a signal onto a first optical fiber at the
single geographic location. The first optical fiber is communicatively
coupled to a first output receptacle on the fiber drop terminal. The
method may also include detecting the signal via a second optical fiber
at the single geographic location. The second optical fiber is
communicatively coupled to a second output receptacle on the fiber drop
terminal, and the second output receptacle is communicatively coupled to
the first output receptacle via a loop-back assembly.
