The PCVFL (Precision Coupled Visual Fault Locator) is a light-weight, hand-held tool used to quickly troubleshoot faults in the continuity of both single-mode and multimode fibers, especially at fiber launch points or in OTDR dead zones. A high-intensity visible red laser beam is precision-coupled into a optical fiber; breaks and micro-bends in the fiber deflect the red light into the fiber jacket, producing a red glow at the point of the fault. Additionally, the PCVFL can be used as an end-to-end visual fiber identifier, which is useful for locating fibers terminated in poorly labeled or unlabeled fiber patch panels. A single switch is used to operate the PCVFL, toggling the unit between OFF, CW (continuous wave), and Pulsed modes. Typical battery life in CW mode is 15 hours, and the short 12.5% duty cycle in pulsed mode extends the battery life to 120 hours of continuous use. The PCVFL ships standard with a 2.5mm universal connector port, which allows for connection to ST, SC, and FC connectors. Extreme caution must be exercised when operating the PCVFL. Lasers such as the ones in the PCVFL produce intense beams of laser light that are harmful to the eye. TO ENSURE YOUR SAFETY: NEVER LOOK INTO A LIGHT SOURCE OR THE END OF A FIBER THAT MAY BE ENERGIZED BY A SOURCE! Exposure to such energy can cause serious retina damage, and prolonged exposure can cause blindness.
NOTE: During normal operation, if the Output LED (3) is not lit, this indicates that the battery has insufficient power, and must be replaced.
Visual Fiber Identification - The PCVFL provides a FLASH mode for easy visual fiber identification. Fibers are identified by locating the fiber end with the flashing red light on the opposite end of the fiber cable. This is useful for locating fibers that are marked incorrectly or not marked at all.
Visual Fault Location - In Continuous Wave Mode, a steady beam of ultra-bright red laser light is injected into the fiber. If this light encounters breaks, microbends, or manufacturing anomalies in the fiber, the light will be redirected into the buffer. This light will be visible through the fiber jacket, informing the user of a break or microbend in the fiber.

Excellent Tester
5.0
This tester was exactly what I was looking for. TEquipment.net had the best prices and shipping was very fast. I even requested it to be shipped to my hotel since I needed it on a trip that I was on. Very good customer service and was quick to answer all my questions and get me the tester that I needed. Excellent company to do business with! I will certainly be looking to go to them for future equipment tester needs.
