NG # 00214-HW-FLUKE-015
Manufactured by:
Fiber QuickMap bridges the divide between a Visual Fault Locator (VFL) and an Optical Time-Domain Reflectometer (OTDR). Combining the simplicity of a VFL with the capability to provide distance and power information, these models excel in scenarios involving high losses.

Description
Optical Time Domain Reflectometers (OTDR) provides graphical data and analysis along the entire length of a cable, way beyond the reach of a VFL, but they can be expensive and require more time to and skill to operate.
VFLs work well for exposed lengths of fiber near a patch panel by illuminating bad connections and breaks. They are not very helpful for cable runs more than a few meters, or when the cable is not visible or accessible, or when the laser light can’t penetrate the jacket
