October 18, 2013 – Exfo’s FIP-400B inspection probe promises crisp, digital images of optical connectors at three levels of magnification. Featuring a patent-pending design based on user feedback, the probe is optimized for handling by both left- and right-handed users.

The FIP-400B sports a fiber image-centering system and ConnectorMax2: an onboard endface Pass/Fail analysis application based on IEC or custom standards to deliver accurate and repeatable connector certification. Exfo is also releasing the MAX-FIP Intelligent Connector and Fiber Certifier: a tablet-inspired stand-alone display kit integrating the FIP-400B and ConnectorMax2 analysis software, an optical power meter for power and loss testing, and a visual fault locator (VFL) to help you test and troubleshoot any type of optical network.
