An odd question

Hey all,

Scratching my head here. Our client- who is providing the wiring - “tested” the fiber connections. Their form of testing was using a flashlight to check if the fiber is good.

Now, I have not had much experience with fiber. But I have never heard of this. We have confirmed that the fiber types are correct, the sfps are correct. But are not getting connection.

It is my understanding that there is a lot more to test to ensure fiber is working other than light shining through a cable. Am I wrong? Did I miss something?

Many thanks for any responses
