Optical Fiber Identifier

The Harris OFI-20B is a handheld, easy-to-use optical test instrument that identifies optical fibers without any damage by detecting the optical signals being transmitted through the fibers. By non-destructive macro-bend detection technology and mechanism damp technology, it avoids opening the fiber at the splice point for identification and interruption of service.

The OFI-20B can accurately detect the optical signals, signal direction and the presence of modulated tones. It can test all kinds of fiber, including fibers of 250 µm and 900 µm and ribbon as well as jacketed fibers of 2 mm and 3 mm.

With its wide dynamic range, OFI-20B can efficiently identify the wide-spectrum signals, such as signals in CATV systems and EDFA. Therefore it can be used in all the physical layer testing of SONET/SDH & DWDM systems.
