INSPECTION EQUIPMENTS
DESCRIPTION
Contamination is the first reason for troubleshooting optical networks. Proactive inspection and cleaning of fiber connectors can prevent poor signal performance, damage to equipment, and network downtime. DIAMOND’s Video
Microscope Kit contains all necessary tools for proper inspection and cleaning
of the connector’s front-faces to help ensure optimal connector performance.
The Video Microscope meets today’s requirements for safety, reliability and
quality by incorporating the performance of a laboratory microscope into a
portable, easy-to-use field inspection tool.
The Microscope offers a zoom feature with up to 400x magnification, integrated
end-face illumination for inspection of 2.5 mm or 1.25 mm (PC and APC) ferrules,
for both, unmated connector, and in-adapter connectors with the inspection probe.
The inspection probe can also be used as stand-alone device and be directly
connected via USB to laptops or PCs, without the need for an external power
supply.
