Viavi FFL-105 Rugged Visual Fault Locator 5mW
Visual Fault Locators Optical Fiber Damage/Break Locator
Whether installing or troubleshooting, the Visual Fault Locator (VFL) is an essential tool that quickly and easily locates problem areas in fiber cables. By pinpointing the exact location of fiber damage, technicians can diagnose, troubleshoot, and fix the problem efficiently.
The VFL is also used for conducting continuity tests and performing fiber identification.
VIAVI Solutions offers two unique versions of the VFL that are economically priced and ergonomically designed for comfortable handling and portability. Both versions are equipped with a 2.5 mm interface and are compatible with connectors such as SC, ST, and FC, while the included 1.25 mm adapter enables connection to LC and MU connectors.
The VFL emits a visible red light, making the light escaping from the damaged fiber easily visible from a distance. The Continuous/Flash control button lets operators choose between continuous or flashing illumination.
