Claim 0:
1. An apparatus comprising:
a device under test (DUT) connection detector, executed by at least one hardware processor, to
receive a signal from a DUT that is to be monitored,
analyze a signal level associated with the received signal to determine whether the signal level is greater than a reference level threshold,
determine, based on the analysis of the signal level, whether the DUT is optically connected in accordance with a connection quality specification, and
generate, based on a determination that the signal level is greater than the reference level threshold, an indication that the DUT is optically connected; and

an optical reflectometer controller, executed by the at least one hardware processor, to
perform, based on a determination that the DUT is optically connected, a measurement associated with the DUT.
