Tracing tool

The compact VisiFault emits a bright beam of red light for easy fibre location from a distance. Users can visually trace one fibre among many, either in a cable or when terminated in a rack, by visually locating the emitted light.

VisiFault makes it quick and easy to check end-to-end continuity and verify the proper polarity of fibres within a multi-fibre connector like an MT-RJ.

The VisiFault illuminates fibre breaks, damaged connectors on patch cords, defective splices in splice trays, and tight fibre bends in and around equipment racks. The unit operates in two modes: continuous wave output for steady illumination or flashing output mode for easier identification of one fibre among many.

The VisiFault incorporates an energy-absorbing holster over an impact-resistant case to withstand drops and rough treatment. A heavy-duty tethered end cap protects the fibre adapter, making the VisiFault suitable for demanding field applications.

VisiFault comes with a universal 2.5 mm adapter for easy connection to SC, ST, FC, and FJ connectors. The optional 1.25 mm universal adapter allows for connection to LC and MU connectors. A carrying case is included. The unit has an attach point for a belt lanyard or carrying strap. Replaceable AA batteries support more than 80 h of operation in continuous output mode.
