AFL’s FlexScan FS200 OTDR is an all-in-one solution for detecting, identifying, locating, and resolving single-mode optical network issues. It is designed for both novice and expert technicians working in a range of environments, from FTTH PON to point-to-point networks. It applies industry-standard or user-set pass/fail criteria and displays results using LinkMap colour-coded icons to show the health of the network. FlexScans automate test setup, shorten test time, and simplify results interpretation improving efficiency and reducing costs.
