Fiber optic connectors cHaPter 2 Body Houses the ferrule that secures the fiber in place; utilizes a latch and key mechanism that aligns the fiber and prevents the rotation of ferrules of two mated connectors. Ferrule Thin cylinder where the fiber is mounted and acts as the fiber alignment mechanism; the end of the fiber is located at the end of the ferrule.

FBP Probe microscope cHaPter 3 Controls The basic design of the Westover FBP probe microscope incorporates an imaging system, integrated light source, video camera, focus mechanism and magnification control. The probe is fully assembled and is powered by the display device. The only assembly required by the user is the connection to the display device and installation of the appropriate barrel assembly and/or the inspection tip.
The barrel assembly houses the objective lens and works in conjunction with a number of tips. Note: Certain tips are equipped with integrated optics and do not require a barrel assembly (e.g., Long Reach Tips [FBPT-LC-L], Angled Tips [FBPT-SC-A6]).

FBPt Inspection tips & adapters cHaPter 4 Standard Tips (Bulkhead and Patch Cord) Standard bulkhead tips allow the user to inspect the fiber end face on the female side of FBPt-SC (Bulkhead) the bulkhead (e.g., inside hardware devices or on the back side of patch panels). Standard patch cord tips allow inspection of male ends of a fiber connection (e.g., patch cords, pigtails).

Fiber Inspection & Testing CHAPTER 6 Absolute Power The absolute power level (system power measurement) is the amount of optical power present in the system, measured in dBm. The source of this power is the transmitter or transceiver sending information through the system. This test determines whether the signal has enough power to operate the receiver or transceiver at the end of the link.
Note: "REF" will flash briefly on the power meter to indicate that the reference level is saved. Note: DO NOT disconnect the reference fiber from the light source (OLS). FBP PRoBE & HP3-60-P4 InsPEct and tEst systEm...
