SCP EasyFiber™ Visual Fault Locator | SCP-EFT-VFL-1MW
The SCP-EasyFiber Visual Fault Locator (VFL) is a compact fiber optic visual fault locator that is ideal for locating breaks and out-of-spec bends in a fiber optic cable. It's also a crucial tool for verifying mechanical fiber optic connectors are terminated properly and identifying strands during splicing and/or patching.
The VFL features a 1mW output which drives a visible laser signal up to 5km. Plus, two modes of operation -- continuous-wave output and flashing wave output -- help identify different strands and cable runs.
The VFL features battery power and a 2.5mm universal connector, which is designed for use with SC, ST, and FC style connectors (integration with LC style connectors requires a 2.5mm to 1.25mm adapter). Both single-mode and multi-mode fiber are supported.
