PRODUCT DESCRIPTION

The Optical Port Saver protects your OTDR ports from damage due to mating with dirty or damaged launch cables, patch cords or normal wear-and-tear. Equip your FlexScan FS200/ FS300 OTDRs or FlexScan TS100 Troubleshooter with a field-replaceable connector, which installs in seconds and accepts AFL’s tool-free interchangeable SC, LC, FC, and ST connector adapters.

 

Replace damaged connectors in the field: When normal wear-and-tear or poor cleaning practices damage the Port Saver’s end-face, replace it in seconds without having to return the OTDR to a service center for an expensive and time-consuming repair.

 

Easy to Install & Cost Effective: The Port Saver helps you avoid factory replacement of damaged ferrules caused by dirt and debris. Traditional repair time for factory OTDR ferrules can be over 1 week. With the Port Saver, you can simply swap out the damaged Port Saver in the field with a new one saving time and costly shipping charges to the factory. Its easy, quick, and you will be back to testing in about 2 minutes!
