AFL’s newly launched FlexScan optical time domain reflectometers (OTDRs) enable both novice and expert technicians to quickly and reliably troubleshoot optical networks or fully characterise newly installed or repaired networks.
Using the innovative SmartAuto mode, multiple OTDR scans detect, locate, identify and measure network components and faults. After applying industry-standard or user-set pass/fail criteria, the characterised network is displayed using FlexScan’s intuitive, icon-based LinkMap view.
FlexScan automates test setup, shortens test time and simplifies results interpretation, improving efficiency and reducing the cost of test. Acquired results may be stored internally or externally. Internally stored results are easily accessed via USB, Bluetooth or Wi-Fi.
With optional connector inspection, 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. Specifically designed for field use, it is robust, rugged, lightweight, powerful and flexible.
FlexScan is available in two models: FS200-50, a 1550 nm only version for cost-effective network troubleshooting, including detection of high losses due to macro-bends; and FS200-100, a 1310/ 1550 nm version for more complete installation verification, as well as troubleshooting. By testing at both wavelengths, the instruments can differentiate poor splices from macro-bends, as well as qualify the network for operation in both 1310 and 1550 nm windows
Both models include an integrated VFL and are available with optional integrated source, power meter and Bluetooth/Wi-Fi wireless communications. FlexScan test sets are available in three standard kit configurations.
