FOCIS Lightning is a self-contained Fiber Scope with an integrated screen for analyzing single and mulit-fiber MPO/MTP® connectors with up to 32 fibers. Using twin 5M pixel CMOS sensors Lightning can image the entire MPO end-face simultaneously including the alignment holes and pins. One button provides auto-focusing, centering and pass/fail analysis at both a connector and individual fiber level at the rate of 1 second per fiber. FOCIS Lightning supports all MPO fiber configurations including Base-8 and Base-10 with key up/key down polarity capture.
