DFS1 FiberScope Quick Reference Guide
The DFS1 is a hand-held electronic imaging device used to inspect fiber optic connector
end-faces for damage or contamination. It is connected to an M-Series (M200, M700)
OTDR or C-Series OTDR or Certification Tester (C840, C850) via a USB port. The DFS1
obtains power from the attached device and delivers video images to the attached device
for display and archiving.
Adapter tips are used with the DFS1 Digital FiberScope to inspect ferrule ends of jumper
cables, as well as fiber ends mounted inside bulkhead adapters on the front panels of
transmission equipment and in patch panels.
An extensive range of tips is available. Please refer to the Adapter Tips Selection Guide
available at www.AFLglobal.com -> NOYES Test and Inspection -> DFS1 -> Downloads.
