EXFO FIP-500 Fiber Inspection Probe
Innovating fiber inspection for all
In today’s fiber-dense environments, single-fiber, multi-fiber and duplex connectors need to be reliably and rapidly inspected to keep networks running smoothly. Leveraging 35+ years of leading expertise in optical testing, we’ve designed the inspection scope that makes it easy for all technicians, everywhere.
Less handling, more doing.
Quick-connect tips: Swap tips in a quarter-turn click, a small but life-changing innovation. No loose parts, not a second wasted.
Longer reach: By design, the FIP-500 provides longer reach and better handling for inspection in dense fiber environments or on top of telecom towers.
Intuitive graphical user interface (GUI): Leveraging the capabilities of the touchscreen, the GUI is very user-friendly for any technician, regardless of their experience.
Features:
- Fastest inspection in the industry (in under 10 seconds for MPO-12)
- Best-in-class optical performance for accurate and repeatable results
- Zero-button inspection: 100% automated from insertion to data saving
- Wide array of adapter tips for single, duplex and multi-fiber connectors (e.g., LC, SC, ST, MPO, OptiTap®, OptiTip®)
- Test all day without any interruption: long-lasting battery and memory space to store results locally - 1800 (MPO) or 10 000 (single-fiber)
- Smartphone-grade 2.4-inch color touchscreen
- Quick-connect design: quarter-turn click for switching between any tips or inspection type
- First AI-powered inspection in the industry for enhanced detection accuracy even in poor lighting or dirty fiber scenarios
