Choose the CIQ-FTK Kit if you install, maintain and troubleshoot both copper and fiber cabling.

This option combines our popular CableIQ Advanced IT Kit and FTK300 Multimode Fiber Verification Kit to provide you with all the tools you need to qualify copper cabling bandwidth, verify fiber optic loss and power levels and troubleshoot both copper and fiber links.

SimpliFiber Optical Loss Test Kits include all the tools to verify proper installation and maintain optical fiber cabling systems. These kits provide simple and effective tools that provide you the capability to measure loss and power levels, locate faults and polarity issues and inspect connector endfaces.

Today’s high-bandwidth premise networks depend on a reliable fiber optic infrastructure. Proper installation and maintenance of fiber cabling is imperative for minimizing network downtime. Whether you require basic fiber verification capabilities, advanced troubleshooting and inspection, or documented loss and power measurements, the SimpliFiber Optical Loss Test Kits are a rugged, high quality solution that meets all these needs.

Fiber Mandrels

Ensure accurate and consistent measurements when testing multimode fiber.

Fluke Networks offers multimode fiber mandrels that provide a foolproof, cost-effective method of improving the repeatability and consistency of multimode optical power and loss measurements when using an LED source. Our new mandrels guarantee the correct number of wraps of the appropriate diameter as specified by the TIA/EIA-568-B standard while protecting 3 mm fiber cables from damage and preventing unwanted microbends Fluke Networks’ Multimode Fiber Mandrels offer a simple, cost effective way to:

• Improve the repeatability and consistency of multimode optical power and loss measurements when using a LED source.
• Ensure that your measurements are compliant with TIA/EIA-568-B standards.
• Guarantee the correct number of wraps around the proper diameter mandrel.
• Protect the 3.0 mm fiber cable from damage and unwanted microbends.

Fluke Networks' Multimode Fiber Mandrels feature groves that enable the user to wrap the cable from the source five times around the mandrel. A retainer keeps the cable in place while not adversely pinching the fiber - making its use foolproof. The fiber mandrels are sized for 3.0 mm fiber cables - the most commonly used patch cable type in the industry. A 22 mm mandrel is available for 50/ 125µm fiber and a 17 mm mandrel is available for 62.5/125µm fiber.

Ensure smooth, clean fiber connections

With a range of solutions, Fluke Networks has the right tool to easily inspect end-faces on a wide variety of connectors.

FT120 and FT140 FiberViewer are handheld microscopes used to inspect the end-faces of fiber optic connectors. The microscopes ensure your termination is smooth, clean and ready for optical transmission. The Fluke Networks FT120 200x FiberViewer is used to inspect multimode fiber end-faces. For singlemode installation, Fluke Networks offers the FT140 FiberViewer with 400X magnification. Both microscopes contain a special safety filter to protect your eyes from harmful infrared rays.

FT500 FiberInspector Mini is a convenient video microscope; it enables end-face inspection of inside ports and fiber optic connectors. Simply insert the probe and inspect installed fiber connectors through the bulkhead adapters without accessing the backside of the patch panels.

Results Management

Manage fiber test results with LinkWare Cable Test Management Software

Fluke Networks' powerful LinkWare Software helps you quickly organize, edit, view, print, save, or archive test results by jobsite, customer, campus building, and more. You can merge test results into an existing database and then sort, search and organize by any number of data fields or parameters.

LinkWare is available free from our web site. Once your work is done, you can give this powerful application to your customer so they can have instant access to the data electronically or you can export the data as an Adobe Portable Document Format (PDF).

Extensive data management capabilities with LinkWare:

• Manage copper and fiber test results with a single software application that supports Fluke Networks' entire line of cable testers
• Deliver professional, customized, graphic reports in a common format for all Fluke Networks cable testers
• Ensure standards compliance with the ability to configure and print TIA 606-A documentation
• New drag and drop feature makes it easier to manage and organize multiple projects
• Count on compatibility with major CMS (cable management software) applications
• Increase productivity with simple user interface and time-saving features with LinkWare, the world's preferred cable test management software

LinkWare Software prints professional, graphical reports with color graphs depicting the measured test parameters. You can choose which parameters to print and the order in which graphs appear. Reports can also be customized with your company logo.

LinkWare Stats provides a graphical analysis of your entire cable plant

LinkWare now supports LinkWare Stats, a new automated statistical report option that allows you to move above and beyond the page-per-link report and see your entire cabling infrastructure. It analyzes and transforms LinkWare cable test data into graphics that reveal your cabling plant performance-summarizing your entire cabling infrastructure in a compact, graphical format that makes it easy to verify margins and spot anomalies.

Diagnose and repair simple fiber link problems

The laser-powered VisiFault verifies continuity and polarity, and helps find breaks and bends in cables, and locate problems in connectors and splices. VisiFault emits a bright beam of red light easily visible from a distance. Connect the VisiFault to one end of a fiber then locate that fiber at the other end, even if it is one of many fibers either in a cable or terminated in a rack. Perform simple end-to-end continuity checks.

VisiFault can quickly illuminate fiber breaks, damaged connectors on patch cords, defective splices in splice trays, and tight fiber bends in and around equipment racks. The choice of a continuous wave output mode for steady fault illumination or a flashing output mode makes for easier fault location.

The integrated universal 2.5mm adapter makes for easy connection to SC, ST, FC, and FJ connectors. The optional 1.25mm adapter allows for connection to LC and MU connectors. Attach the VisiFault to your belt using a lanyard or in the carrying case so it is always on hand when you need it. Long battery life for hours of use, includes two AA batteries giving you more than 80 hours of continuous mode battery life.

Fluke Networks built the VisiFault to last.

VisiFault incorporates an energy-absorbing holster over an impact-resistant case to withstand drops, impacts and rough treatment. Together with a heavy-duty tethered end cap to protect the fiber adapter, VisiFault is the VFL for demanding field applications. Unlike more fragile VFL's that utilize a flashlight body or plain plastic case, Fluke Networks industrially engineered the VisiFault custom-case to be compact, ergonomic and mechanically tough for field use.
