MFIS-00-2000 Revision AB, 2020-11-19 Specifications are subject to change without notice. Multi-fiber network construction is time consuming, complicated, and often built by more than one contractor with mixed sets of documentation. There are guaranteed to be mislabeled and cross-connected fibers, which cost valuable time to find and fix. AFL’s Multi-Fiber Identification System (MFIS) is a simple user-friendly way to verify network construction quickly and efficiently. Rugged lightweight tools that can be operated with one hand: MFIS is a set of three tools that can be used to easily verify the fiber ID. The MFT (Multi-Fiber Trace) features 12 discrete laser sources (1550 nm single-mode) and an MTP fan-out connector. The digitally-coded light is then detected by either the MFI (Multi-Fiber Identifier), which clamps onto the fiber under test or the MFP (Multi-Fiber Power Meter), which plugs into the fiber under test. Slash multiple fiber activations cost by up to 75% over conventional method: During service activation field technicians often run into unlabeled, mislabeled, and cross-connected fibers that can take two technicians hours to figure out - increasing cost and delaying service for customers. MFIS enables one technician to verify up to 12 fibers at a time, slashing the time it takes to activate new customers. Ensure 100% multi-fiber network continuity: MFIS can be used to efficiently verify potentially cross-connected fibers at any point of an existing network – providing peace of mind to network managers. Features • Identifies up to 12 fibers at a time • Light-weight, rugged, and can be operated with one hand • Optimized for use on 250 μm, 900 μm, and ribbon fiber • Three-year calibration interval Applications • Multi-fiber network continuity assurance • Fiber identification on both MFP power meter and MFI identifier • Verify long-haul networks (up to 110 miles) • Quickly verify FlexNap ® network mapping

Multi-Fiber network construction is time consuming, complicated, and often built by more than one crew with mixed sets of documentation. However carefully the build-out is done, mistakes such as mislabeling can happen. How can the network operator have full confidence in their network continuity? AFL’s Multi-Fiber Identification System (MFIS) can provide 100% multi-fiber network continuity assurance and senior management peace of mind. The MFIS test system is a simple user-friendly way to verify network construction quickly, correctly, and efficiently.
Designed to address both the service provider and enterprise markets, the MFIS test system, with its embedded digital coding, called Fiber ID, is used during and after multi-fiber network construction activities to give managers confidence and peace of mind with respect to fiber network documentation accuracy.
MFT — Multi-fiber Tracer
The MFT is a single power (MTP), twelve-fiber output 1550 nm source. It is designed around 12 discrete laser sources (1550 nm singlemode) tied to an MTP fan-out connector. It is packaged in a light and sturdy case. One single button operation is designed to quickly send laser light with embedded Fiber ID signals down the network for MFI (Multi-Fiber Identifier) and/or MFP (Multi-Fiber Power Meter) to provide automatic fiber identification.
MFI — Multi-fiber Identifier
MFI is designed to detect the presence of digitally coded laser light in the optical fiber network under test. The unit is activated by inserting the fiber under test into the clamp and pulling the trigger, located on the underside of the MFI. The LCD displays the fiber identification number.
MFI detects the digitally coded data bursts transmitted by the MFT when the MFI is clamped on the fiber under test.
MFP — Multi-fiber Power Meter
MFP is designed to detect the presence of digitally coded laser light emitted from the MFT while in Fiber ID mode. It is also designed to use as a regular power meter.
