OFI4-00-2000 Revision AD, 2021-10-19 Specifications are subject to change without notice. AFL’s OFI-400 Optical Fiber Identifiers are rugged, hand-held, and easy-to-use fiber optic test instruments designed to detect and measure the core power levels of optical signals on single-mode optical fiber without disrupting traffic on that fiber. They are simply clamped onto a fiber and display the presence and direction of traffic, continuous test signals, and modulated test tones. This permits network personnel to easily and quickly identify a specific fiber without the risk of disrupting service. All of AFL’s optical light sources are Ideal companions to the OFI-400 family of optical fiber identifiers. No adapters to purchase, store, swap, or misplace: Each OFI-400 uses a unique optical head design featuring a two-position plunger that enables it to be used with 250 μm, 900 μm, and ribbon fiber or 2 mm and 3 mm jacketed fiber. Other brands of optical fiber identifiers require users to purchase, store and change optical plungers each time a different type of fiber is tested. Low insertion loss for in-service ID tasks: OFI-400’s optical heads induces a safe, repeatable macro-bend to the fiber that allows a small amount of light to escape for analysis. The insertion loss induced by the macro-bend is too small to affect the signal on the fiber and the integrity of the fiber is unaffected by the measurement process. Designed for the real world: The OFI-400 family are simple, easy-to-use tools that feature rugged, drop-proof construction - perfect for inside or outside plant use. Their ergonomically designed macro-bend trigger is comfortable to use and the integrated, backlit LCD display enables them to be used in dimly lit spaces. Each OFI-400 uses readily available 1.5 V AAA batteries which can power thousands of fiber tests before needing to be replaced. OFI-400 model: The OFI-400 is designed for use with a wide range of single-mode fibers including 250 μm (bare) coated, 900 μm buffered and ribbon fibers or 2 mm and 3 mm jacketed fibers. The OFI-400 is ideal for network personnel involved in installation, reconfiguration, restoration and maintenance tasks that involve bare, buffered, jacketed or ribbon fibers in outside plant pedestals, fiber cabinets, aerial enclosures and inside plant premises demarcation cabinets. The slim design of the OFI-400 head facilitates access in crowded splice trays. OFI-400C model: Designed specifically for use with 2 mm or 3 mm jacketed single-mode fibers, the OFI-400C is ideal for general purpose maintenance, configuration and installation tasks. The OFI-400C is functionally equivalent to the OFI-400 but includes an optical head design and a calibration scheme optimized for use with jacketed fiber. OFI-400HP model: The OFI-400HP is designed for use where high levels of optical power are present. This includes fibers carrying a single high- power signal, CWDM or DWDM signals with high total power levels, amplified optical signals, or pump lasers associated with EDFA or Raman amplifiers. When display reaches +23 dBm (200 mW) or greater, the OFI-400HP will display “High” warning indication.

All specifications stated above are as measured at 25°C. b. 250 μm coated fiber parameters are specified with OFI plunger in the “250 / 900 / RIB” position. 2 mm / 3 mm jacketed fiber parameters are specified with OFI plunger in the “2 mm / 3 mm” position. c. CW is a light signal that is not modulated. Traffic is a light signal modulated by high speed user data. Tone is a light signal modulated into a nominal 50 % duty cycle square wave. d. Unless noted otherwise, all specifications are typical. Actual results can vary by several dB depending on fiber type, coating material, jacket color, jacket hardness, and other factors. e.
