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 is not visible or accessible, or when the laser light can’t penetrate the jacket.

Optical Time Domain Reflectometers (OTDR) provide 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 and skill to operate.

Fiber OneShot PRO and Fiber QuickMap fill 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.

• Measure and locate high-loss splices
• Measure and locate high loss connections and breaks
• 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
• Key information visible on a large display; power loss in db and distance in meters or feet
• Set loss and reflection limits
• Change the Index of Refraction (IOR) to improve fiber length accuracy
• Visible in dark areas. Backlighted display turns off automatically
• Removable SC adapter is easily cleaned
• Optional LC, ST and FT interchangeable adapters are available
• Long battery life, 1,500 tests (typical) from 2 AA alkaline batteries
• Rugged construction; vibration and drop tested to 1 meter

 

Fiber OneShot PRO and Fiber QuickMap

×

Fiber OneShot PRO provides immediate and in-depth visibility into a singlemode fiber cable (below). Fiber QuickMap operates the same, except on multimode fiber up to 1,500 meters / 4,921 feet.
