Product Description
WILCOM F6121R OPTICAL FIBER IDENTIFIER RIBBON, NEWThe Wilcom Model F6121R Ribbon Fiber Identifier isa lightweight, rugged, easy-to-use installation and maintenanceinstrument designed for fast, accurate identificationand traffic testing of optical signals without cuttingthe fiber cable or interrupting service. By utilizing localdetection technology (nondestructive macro-bend detection),this unit is ideal for use during routine maintenanceand line modification, and can be used to locatea particular fiber line, non-obtrusively identify live fibers,and determine whether traffic is present.The Ribbon Fiber Identifier detects low frequencytones at 270 Hz, 1000 Hz and 2000 Hz. When traffic ispresent on the fiber under test, an audible tone can beheard as well as the traffic direction which is indicatedby LEDs illuminating on the probe.During installations, maintenance, rerouting, or restorations it is often necessary to isolate a specific fiber withoutdisrupting service. A light source such as Wilcom’s Model FS1316 used in conjunction with the Ribbon FiberIdentifier can make the job a lot easier.The Ribbon Fiber Identifier includes three easy to use field changeable adapter heads. Two adapter heads arededicated to ribbon fiber making the unit ideal for verifying signal presence or absence (live or dark fiber) on ribbonfiber. One adapter head is for use on Bare Ribbon Fiber, and the other adapter head is for use on Jacketed RibbonFiber. The third interchangeable adapter head is for testing 3mm patch cords.
