FOCIS Lightning®2

Multi-Fiber Optic Connector Inspection System

FOCIS Lightning2 is a compact self-contained inspection probe that captures and displays the entire MPO end-face image in less than two seconds. One button provides auto-focusing, centering, and Pass/Fail analysis at the connector and individual fiber level. It can be used to inspect MPO-8, -12, -16, -24 and -32 connectors. Results can be easily shared via USB and Bluetooth®.

Pass/Fail results in seconds:FOCIS Lightning2 was designed to quickly inspect multi-fiber connectors and bulkheads, such as MPO and MTP®, including multi-row varieties. It can perform industry standard and user-defined end-face cleanliness analysis at a rate of about 1 second per fiber – significantly speeding up inspection time when compared with other technologies.

Internal storage and multiple export options:FOCIS Lightning2 can store 10,000 individual fiber images, analysis, overlays, and zones tables locally and can provide optional Bluetooth wireless links for archiving and reporting. AFL’s FlexApp (iOS and Android) provides a comprehensive and user-friendly feature set as well as connectivity with AFL’s FlexReporter-Cloud.

Untethered operation: With rechargeable battery and integrated 3.5” TFT color LCD touchscreen, FOCIS Lightning2 can be used independently.

Multi-fiber front-end adapter tips:Multi-fiber front-end adapter tips support single row and multi-row MPO connector inspection for a wide range of patch cords and bulkhead-mounted connectors having either PC/UPC or APC polished end-faces. The probe snout includes a key which in combination with a slot on the adapter tips ensures that adapter tips never loosen during use, under any circumstances.

Easy reporting and archiving:The FlexReporter software suite is a complete platform for report generation and results sharing. This platform includes FlexApp, a mobile App that wirelessly transfers test results from the field to the Cloud. These results can be accessed via FlexReports that provide a variety of easy-to-use options for report generation. FlexReports Basic is included with all AFL OTDRs and enables users to quickly view and analyze results, generate simple single-fiber OTDR and OLTS reports. FlexReports Basic also includes a 60-day Advanced trial that includes full reporting and OTDR Trace Batch Editing.
