© Fluke NetworksVisiFault L&L June 2004 VisiFault Visual Fault Locator (VFL) New tool traces fiber, verifies continuity and polarity, helps find breaks

2 VisiFault L&L June 2004 Key features  Bright visible light for fiber tracing, continuity and polarity verification, and fault location  Rugged design is built to last  Easy to use

3 VisiFault L&L June 2004 Tracing, verification and fault location  Emits a bright beam of readily visible red light  Similar to a laser pointer  Basic tool for visually tracing fibers  Connect to one end of a fiber then locate the other end, even if it one of many fibers either in cable or terminated in a rack  Quickly check end-to-end continuity (no breaks)  Verify the proper polarity (orientation) within a multi-fiber connector like the MT-RJ  Quickly illuminate fiber faults  Breaks, damaged connectors on patch cords, defective splices in splice trays, tight fiber bends in and around equipment racks  Light may not be visible through thick or dark-colored cable sheaths, connector boots or dust caps
