Introduction

The DSP-FTA410 Fiber Test Adapter lets you use a DSP-4000
CableAnalyzer™ test tool to test and certify fiber optic cable installations. The
fiber test adapter includes the following features:
•
Autotest function measures optical power loss (at 850 nm and 1300 nm)
and length on dual-fiber multimode links. Provides pass/fail results based
on common fiber test standards.
•
Includes built-in support for SFF (Small Form Factor) link testing.
•
With a separate laser source (such as the Fluke LS-1310/1550 Laser
Source), you can test singlemode fiber at 1310 nm and 1550 nm.
•
Monitors power at 850 nm, 1300 nm, 1310 nm, and 1550 nm from optical
sources, such as test equipment and optical interface cards.
•
Transmits or receives 850 nm or 1300 nm light for performing quick
continuity checks.
•
Graphic Help screens show you how to make proper fiber connections.
•
FindFiber™ feature helps you verify optical connectivity.
•
Allows two-way voice communication over the fiber under test (using two
DSP-FTA410 units and the headsets supplied with the DSP-4000 test
tool).
•
Saves fiber test results for printing or uploading to a PC.
