The AFL FS200-303-BAS-P1-W1 is an FS200-303 OTDR basic kit, 1310/1550/1625nm with integrated Optical Light Source (OLS), Optical Power Meter (OPM), Visual Fault Locator (VFL), Bluetooth and Wi-Fi. The basic kit includes the FlexScan unit with battery and charger, wrist strap, SC/2.5 mm connector adapters, USB cable, soft carry case and FlexReports Basic software. Users requiring full reporting capability can upgrade to FlexReports Advanced (sold separately).

Combining SmartAuto network-optimized event detection and analysis with its intuitive LinkMap view of the tested network, AFL’s FlexScan OTDRs enable even novice technicians to quickly and easily troubleshoot or fully characterize optical fiber networks.

User-friendly: FlexScan OTDRs enable technicians to detect, locate, identify and measure optical network components and faults quickly, reliably and accurately. After applying industry-standard or user-set pass/fail criteria, the network is displayed using FlexScan’s intuitive, icon-based LinkMap view. Acquired results may be stored internally or externally. FlexScan automates test setup, shortens test time and simplifies results interpretation, improving efficiency and reducing the cost of test.

Pocket-sized: At 3.5 x 6 x 1.75 inches, and less than one pound, FlexScan OTDRs truly fit in your pocket, yet still provide a large, bright indoor/outdoor touchscreen display and all-day operation.

All-in-one test capability: With optional pairing of FOCIS family inspection scopes, integrated source, power meter and VFL, FlexScan offers an all-in-one solution, ensuring technicians have everything they need to locate and resolve optical network issues. Uploaded results may be viewed and reports may be generated using the included Windows-compatible software.

In SmartAuto mode, a FlexScan OTDR automatically determines the characteristics of the network under test and rapidly completes multiple scans using a variety of network-optimized acquisition settings. It precisely locates and identifies network events, as well as measures loss and reflectance for each detected event. For even greater ease-of-use, FlexScan checks for live fiber and verifies the OTDR launch connection before initiating a test. Dual and triple-wavelength FlexScan OTDRs also provide automatic macro-bend detection.

FlexScan's new FleXpress mode completes dual wavelength tests in seconds, reducing test time by a factor of 10x compared to conventional OTDRs. For multi-fiber testing, FleXpress mode automatically controls AFL's MPO Switch, testing 12 fibers at the touch of a single button.

LinkMap with Pass/Fail enables even novice users to troubleshoot optical networks easily and accurately. LinkMap presents an icon-based view of the tested network clearly identifying fiber start, end, connectors, splices, PON splitters, and macro-bends.

A LinkMap Summary provides end-to-end link length, loss, loss per distance and ORL. Loss and reflectance of detected events is compared to industry-standard or user-settable pass/fail thresholds and displayed with clear pass/fail indications. Users can instantly toggle between LinkMap and Trace views.

FlexScan integrates a Visual Fault Locator (VFL) plus an optional optical laser source (OLS) and optical power meter (OPM) supporting AFL's unique Wave ID capability. With Wave ID, the power meter automatically synchronizes to a single or multi-wavelength Wave ID optical signal sent by an AFL light source. The power meter automatically identifies received wavelengths and measures power and loss at each wavelength, saving significant test time and eliminating setup errors.

The VFL's eye-safe red laser enables users to visually pinpoint the location of macro-bends and fiber breaks often found in splice closures and fiber cabinets.

The AFL FS200 is available in various package configurations. Please see below for ordering information.

First, there are five FlexScan models currently available:

Each model has several kit packages available. Please note that not all models are available in all six kit configurations:
