Zusammenfassung:Embodiments provide an optical cable (110) for transmitting optical signals, the optical cable (110) comprising: an optical cable span including a first optical fiber (1) and a second optical fiber (2); a first optical reflector (112) optically coupled to said first optical fiber near a first end (302) of said span and configured to reflect a first tagging wavelength (»1) of light; and a second optical reflector (112) optically coupled to said second optical fiber near said first end (302) of said span and configured to reflect a second different tagging wavelength (»2) of light. Embodiments also provides a method for identifying a tagged optical fiber.
