SimpliFiber Pro Multimode and Singlemode Sources

Overview

Sturdily built and encased in a durable molding, the next generation SimpliFiber Pro LED multimode and laser singlemode sources* retain the familiar intuitive four-button functionality from the popular workhorse SimpliFiber line, while incorporating additional features that make fiber testing even more simple.

SimpliFiber Pro Multimode and Singlemode Sources

When combined with a SimpliFiber Prooptical power meter, these sources enable you to:

• Quickly and efficiently measure power and loss at SC, LC, and ST connections using the dual-wavelength testing feature in which both 850 and 1300 nm or 1310 and 1550 nm wavelengths can be transmitted simultaneously
• Conveniently save measurements taken at both wavelengths into one record
• Eliminate time-consuming mistakes with the automatic wavelength detection ability
• Quickly identify patch panel cable routing without the assistance of a talk set and another technician

*The multimode source is standard in the FTK1000, FTK1300, FTK1375, and FTK1475 kits; the singlemode source is standard in the FTK2000 and FTK1475 kits or available separately as a standalone module.
