Compact CableMaster VFL Offers Continuity Testing and Fault Location for Fiber Optic Cables
Softing Inc., a leading global provider of products for automation, IT networks and automotive electronics, has released its CableMaster VFL (visual fault locator), a fiber optic visual fault locator, continuity tester and polarity detector.
The CableMaster VFL provides continuity testing and fault location for optical fibers in both single mode and multimode. By emitting a pulsed or continuous visible laser, this device can detect mechanically damaged fibers and fiber ends. As a Class 2 laser, the CableMaster VFL emits light at a 635-nanometer wavelength and transmits less than 1 milliwatt of power. While operating in pulsed mode, it offers up to 40 hours of battery life on two AAA batteries.
This tool can test fiber optic cables up to 5 kilometers. For fiber connection, it features a universal adapter to connect to all common 2.5-millimeter connector systems. An additional 1.25-millimeter adapter is also available.
Featuring a compact and ergonomic design, the CableMaster VFL is ideal for field applications, as well as for data centers, industrial environments and laboratories. Users can also easily operate the device with one hand.
