Optical Fiber Checker

Features:

  • Extra bright 635nm Laser source

  • 2.5mm universal port (FC, SC, ST, E2000)

  • Optimized for singlemode & multimode

  • Continuous and Flashing output modes

  • New and improved fiber coupling

   

The Optical Fiber Checker is a  low cost, highly effective pen style visual fault locator. The Optical Fiber Checker is powered by two AAA batteries and comes with a compact carry case. The Optical Fiber Checker is typically couples greater then 800uW of Laser light into singlemode fiber core, allowing for instant identification of fiber breaks, micro or tight macro-bending, even through 3mm buffered fiber . The high coupled power, along with the use of the highly visible 635nm wavelength, makes the Optical Fiber Checker an excellent tool for optimizing splices, isolating a damaged connector on a patchcord, locating a broken fiber or splice in a splice tray, or highlighting overly tight cable ties in and around equipment racks. The unit operates in both an always on, CW mode, or a flashing modulation mode for enhanced fault location capability in well lit areas.
