60MM SINGLE FIBER

40MM SINGLE FIBER

40MM 12 RIBBON FIBER

This Visual Fault Locator utilizes a 650nm wavelength semiconductor laser to inject visible red light into the fiber. By observing light leakage along the fiber under test, users can easily and accurately identify the location of faults, such as breaks, bends, or poor connections.

Key Features and Applications: Accurate Fault Detection: Pinpoints fiber breakpoints, bends, or connector issues by visual light emission.

OTDR Companion Tool: Designed to complement OTDR testing by addressing its near-end blind zone limitations.

Versatile Testing: Ideal for use with multi-core cables and ribbon fiber testing—can function as a core identification tool.

This tool is essential for field technicians and installers who require quick, visual fault detection in both single-mode and multimode optical fibers.

We offer a wide range of high-quality fiber optic test equipment, tool kits, cable preparation tools, and cleaning solutions to support all your fiber optic installation and maintenance needs.

An OTDR launch cable, which connects the OTDR to the link-under-test, discloses the insertion loss and reflectance of the near-end connection. It is often available on a small spool or within a “launch box”, which is used to create the proper conditions for testing another similar optical fiber for faults. This method avoids undesirable variations in loss and distance measurements. A launch fiber will help to overcome the blind spot or Dead Zone of an OTDR brought about by high launch power or faults near the launch end of the fiber.
