Product Overview

The Multi-Fiber Switch is designed to test 12 fiber MPO connected cables without the need to use a breakout cable, saving time and money. The switch allows you to utilize a single piece of test equipment to seamlessly cycle through all of the fibers in a connector regardless of polarity without having to disconnect and reconnect your test equipment making the testing of your network more efficient, saving you both time and money.

Features

Converts a single port tester into a multi-fiber MPO tester
SC port for connection to test equipment
12F MPO port for connection to MPO cable under test
LCD screen to indicate fiber under test
Singlemode, or multimode models

Applications

Can be used with an OPM/OLS, OLTS, OTDR, and VFL
Automatically controlled by FlexScan® OTDR, and ROGUE OLTS-CERT®
Efficient testing from 1-12 fiber MPO links
