V20
Fiber microscope
The fiber microscope is mainly used to check if the end face of the fiber is clean. With the ability to display a clear image and the double amplification function, the V 20 is able to analyze the cleanliness of the fiber end face.
The portable fiber microscope allows the inspection of the fiber’s face. Available in 200 (μm) × or 360 (μm) × magnification.

Importance of a clean connector end interface
It is essential to use self-analysis software to test the connector and evaluate its quality during commissioning and installation of the fiber. It is very important to save the verification records of the connector for future reference. The end-to-end verification can be performed by combining the connector test with the fiber verification. The following test images are displayed.
