Fiber Quickmap Main MMF Fault Finder

At a Glance

Works on multimode fiber, 50/125µm and 62.5/125 µm 850 nm output wavelength. Measure up to 4,921 feet (1,500 metres) of fiber in seconds Locate severe bends, high-loss splices, breaks and dirty connectors in multimode fiber Measure and locate high-loss splices Locate the end of a fiber Find potential sources of high bit error rates caused by reflectance from dirty or poor connections Detects live optical signals before it begins testing Quick set-up. Connect your fiber and press the Test button. No lengthy set-up necessary Find problems quickly. Six-second test time-no more blind troubleshooting that can waste hours Change the Index of Refraction (IOR) to improve fiber length accuracy

Overview

VFLs work well for exposed lengths of fiber near a patch panel by illuminating bad connections and breaks. They are not very helpful for cable runs more than a few meters, or when the cable not visible or accessible, or when the laser light can't penetrate the jacket. Optical Time Domain Reflectometers (OTDR) provides graphical data and analysis along the entire length of a cable, way beyond the reach of a VFL, but they can be expensive and require more time to and skill to operate. Fiber QuickMap fills the gap between a VFL and an OTDR. These models have the simplicity of a VFL, and provide distance and power information on high losses, breaks, and the end of the fiber. They also identify live fiber VFLs work well for exposed lengths of fiber near a patch panel by illuminating bad connections and breaks.
