Overview
Industry’s first AI-powered inspection for single-fiber, duplex and multi-fiber connectors. Delivers reliable and repeatable results with a self-contained, fully automated tool for zero-button testing all day—no need to recharge batteries or offload results
FIP-500 - Fiber inspection scope

Key features

  • First AI-powered inspection in the industry for enhanced detection accuracy even in poor lighting or dirty fiber scenarios
  • Fastest inspection in the industry (in under 10 seconds for MPO-12)
  • Best-in-class optical performance for accurate and repeatable results
  • Zero-button inspection: 100% automated from insertion to data saving
  • Wide array of adapter tips for single, duplex and multi-fiber connectors (e.g., LC, SC, ST, MPO, OptiTap®, OptiTip®)
  • Smartphone-grade 2.4-inch color touchscreen

Applications

  • Central offices, exchanges and headends
  • Data centers
  • Wireless (e.g., 5G, FTTA, DAA, small cells)
  • Fiber-to-the-home (FTTH)
