Test and Inspection FlowScout ® QUAD OLTS Certification Test Set 1 AFLglobal.com/contact Sales & Support AFL’s FlowScout Quad OLTS is ideal for fiber testing in enterprise LAN and data center environments. It is designed for fast, accurate Tier 1 optical loss certification of duplex fiber links and can test single-mode and multimode fiber. In addition to providing Tier I certification capability, it can also be used as a standalone power meter or light source. Additionally, the FlowScout Quad OLTS utilizes AFL’s Wave ID format, allowing it to automatically identify incoming wavelength(s) of signals sent from other AFL products using Wave ID. Extremely fast testing: The FlowScout Quad OLTS test set provides rapid testing on duplex fiber links. Highly accurate results and simple operation: The test set design is based on a precise, highly accurate testing technology to ensure accurate verification and validation of links. A simple icon-based user interface allows technicians to quickly set up, test, validate, and document fiber networks. The FlowScout Quad OLTS measures and automatically evaluates pass/fail loss against industry or user-set limits. The large color touchscreen displays detected power levels with color-coded pass/fail indications. All-in-One solution: The FlowScout ® Quad OLTS is a pair of hand-held testers designed to support native duplex multimode and single-mode testing with integrated VFL. One Reporting Platform for Documentation: Measured pass/fail limits and device information may be transferred from internal memory for download via Bluetooth or USB. Using AFL’s free FlexApp on iOS or Android mobile device, test results may be wirelessly transferred to AFL’s FlexReporter cloud for subsequent analysis, editing, and report generation with FlexReports PC software.
