About this item

  • 【Easy to Check Fiber Faults】Effortlessly and accurately detect and locate fiber breaks, poor connections, bends, or cracks. The detector emits a bright 650nm light for fiber tracing, and any breaks or faults in the fiber will cause light refraction.
  • 【Usage】The locator 's 2.5mm universal connector is designed to be compatible with ST, SC, and FC interfaces, making it suitable for testing both single-mode and multi-mode cables.(The LC cable can be tested through the FC Male to Female LC connector.)
  • 【Practical Design and Exceptional Performance】With its compact and lightweight design, this device is highly portable and ideal for field tests. It incorporates various functions such as constant output power, low battery warning, long battery life, and long-distance detection.
  • 【Components】Includes 5 Adapters - FC, ST, LC, SC couplers ( female to female) and FC male to LC female adapter; 3 short Patch Cords (3.2 FT Long) - ST to SC, ST to LC and ST to FC patch cord. These components facilitate the troubleshooting of fiber optic cables connected to distribution panels without the need to remove the fiber from the panel.[Note: Not include 2AA batteries]
  • 【Quality assurance】24 months after-sales service gives you a good shopping experience. If you have any problem, please contact us, we will solve it for you and make you reap satisfaction.



Product Description

Fiber optic Cable Troubleshoot Kit

Fiber Optic Visual Fault Locator

Visual fault locator is used for the measurement in singlemode or multimode fibers.

650nm Pen-type Visual Fault Finder for fiber tracing, fiber routing and continuity checking.

It works very well to identify flaws in fiber and even to help cut and clean the fiber to prep it for quick connects.

It is easy to carry (even put it directly in your pocket), easy to test on site, low battery warning, and remote detection.

The design with a small pouch makes it portable; the dust-proof design keeps the optical fiber connector clean.

When you need to test the continuity of the LC fiber optic patch cord, you need to use the FC male to LC female adapter to connect the LC fiber optic patch cord with the locator to test.

Added a pair of AA batteries and we were off locating faults with this metal body tester. Tolerances are tight and adapters secure well. The red LED is bright, more than enough to push through nearly 3000 feet of OM4 via LC connector. A good selection of adapters is included along with a somewhat thick storage case that will keep everything well protected. Both constant and flashing light source is available at the slide of the power switch, with OFF in the middle position. However, the slide button requires holding down to keep the light source on, a negative when working alone over long distance runs. Overall, a good kit for the cost.

This is a complete kit with everything I need for the types of connectors I test on a daily basis. I install fiber in large buildings such as retail and hotels. This is useful to find bends and breaks in exposed fiber, however most of the fiber I install is either armored or inside conduits, so that's not as useful as you would think. What I use it for is to verify and identify individual strands from one end to the other. I have found termination issues where strands were swapped, TX/RX or connected to the entirely wrong port. This is a useful tool if you install or troubleshoot fiber.

This is a nice VFL kit to locate your fiber or find a break in your fiber. It comes in a semi-ridged case and comes with plenty of connectors/adaptors to get the job done. The VFL has the standard two modes (solid/flashing). The one thing that you will have to provide is batteries. It takes 2 AA batteries. Overall, this VFL has helped me a lot at my job as a network engineer.

I picked this up to use for network trouble-shooting. It ships in a nice little zip case with enough room to stock a series of jumpers and connectors to have them with me at all times. It ships with batteries (nice touch). It's not an amazingly impressive kit. But it is functional and useful. Great for someone who only occasionally works with fiber.

Nothing to dislike, the tool worked perfectly and aided in quick identification of remote fibre connections. A must for any cabler, network engineer or electrician that deals with fibre on a regular basis.

I wanted something more powerful when trying to trace out spares that are already ran in a data center setting and this definitely does the job. My only gripe is when connecting to to an SC connector you have to remove the dust cap on both sides of the connector for it to seat. I’m probably going to modify the head with a Dremel so I don’t have to do this.

This is a decent set, but do have a couple issues with the VFL unit itself. The casing can be very finicky after replacing the batteries; make sure it's screwed in all the way tight or you might not get any power. Also, my power meter sees it as 3 dB **dimmer** than its own built-in VFL, which is supposed to be 30mW. Not sure what's going on there as it does seem at least as bright visually if I shine them both on the wall 🤷That aside, this does come with some nice adapters and jumper cables for a handy set. If the price is right for you, I wouldn't be TOO worried recommending it but overall it's just a cheap VFL ± like any other with some extras that may or may not be worth the price depending on what you already have.
