Overview
The Fluke Networks FQM-100-M Fiber QuickMap Multimode Kit is a professional-grade fiber fault locator designed to expedite troubleshooting in enterprise environments. It specifically measures the length of multimode (50/125µm and 62.5/125µm) fiber optic cabling and identifies the location of high-loss connections, splices, and fiber breaks up to 1,500 meters (4,921 feet).
Engineered for field utility, this unit delivers rapid results within seconds and features a clear, large backlit display for ease of use in various lighting conditions. Its rugged construction ensures it can withstand the rigors of field work, having been vibration and drop-tested to 1 meter. The device provides a user-selectable loss threshold from -20dB to -45dB, with a default setting of -35dB.
