The OPTVFL is a compact but
powerful visual fault locator designed to troubleshoot faults on fibre optic
cables. Light generated by this unit will escape from sharp bends and breaks in
jacketed or bare fibers, as well as
poorly mated connectors. It can also identify faults in fiber optic jumper
cables, distribution frames, patch panels, and splice trays.
The OPTVFL is an excellent
addition to an engineers tool set because it can locate broken fibre inside the
OTDR’s dead-zone. Being portable and light it lends its self to other
applications include end-to-end continuity checks, identifying connectors in
patch panels and fibers during splicing operations. The universal connector
interface provides fast operation with many connector styles without changing an
adapter.
