Complete Single-Mode Testing in One Powerful Device
AFL’s FlexScan FS200 OTDR is an all-in-one solution for detecting, identifying, locating, and resolving single-mode optical network issues. It is designed for both novice and expert technicians working in a range of environments, from FTTH PON to point-to-point networks. It applies industry-standard or user-set pass/fail criteria and displays results using LinkMap color-coded icons to show the health of the network. FlexScans automate test setup, shorten test time, and simplify results interpretation improving efficiency and reducing costs.
The Competitive Edge
All-in-one test capability: The FlexScan FS200 includes an integrated VFL, power meter, and light source. It can be easily paired to AFL’s award winning FOCIS family of inspection scopes, ensuring technicians have everything they need to locate and quickly resolve optical network issues. FlexScan FS200 is also compatible with AFL's single-mode MPO-24 Switch, significantly reducing test time over MPO-8/12/16/24- or MTP®-terminated fiber cables.
Performance-packed: With SmartAuto multi-pulse acquisition, up to 39 dB dynamic range, and best-in-class as low as 18 m PON dead zone. FlexScan FS200 PON OTDRs test GPON and XGS-PON with up to 1:64 splitter ratio, while still detecting and measuring events only meters apart. Fast! FleXpress mode completes dual-wavelength tests in as low as 5 seconds – 10 x faster than conventional OTDR tests! For multi-fiber testing, FS200s automatically control AFL’s MPO-24 Optical Switch to further reduce multi-fiber test time.
Pocket-sized: At 3.5 x 6 x 1.75 in. (86 x 160 x 43 mm) and less than one pound (0.4 kg), FlexScan FS200 OTDRs truly fit in your pocket, yet still provide a large, bright indoor/outdoor touchscreen display, and all-day operation.
Multiple sharing and reporting options: Results can be stored internally, saved to a USB, and uploaded via USB cable, Bluetooth (via FlexApp) or Wi-Fi for real-time reporting using the included FlexReports Test Results Manager software. Reports can also be viewed on AFL's FlexApp.
Convenient cost-saving kits: FlexScan FS200 bundles are available with options for launch cable, FOCIS Flex connector inspection probe and tips, MPO-24 Optical Switch, and/or AFL’s universal optical fiber identifier (OFI-BIPMe) for significant cost-savings!
Optical Port Saver included: AFL's field-replaceable Port Saver, helps to avoid expensive service repairs to replace connectors damaged due to poor cleaning practices and/or normal wear-and-tear.
