Overview
The FiberXP FR-SCASCUS2-100M is a professional-grade single mode fiber optic launch cable designed to enhance the accuracy of OTDR measurements. By providing a controlled length of fiber, it effectively minimizes the initial dead zone, allowing technicians to characterize the near-end and far-end connectors of the fiber under test.
This unit features a compact, lightweight ring configuration with 100 meters of high-quality Corning single mode 9µm fiber. It is constructed for durability and portability, featuring 1-meter pigtails and a repositionable carabiner for easy attachment to test gear or racks. It is delivered in a protective pouch to ensure long-term utility in the field.
