What is VFL?


VFL, also called Visual Fault Locator, is a device which is able to locate the breakpoint, bending or cracking of the fiber glass. It can also locate the fault of OTDR dead zone and make fiber identification from one end to the other end. Designed with a FC,SC,ST universal adapter, this fiber fault locator is used without any other type of additional adapters ,it can locates fault up to 10km in fiber cable, with compact in size, light in weight, red laser output.


Types of Visual Fault Locator


Visual fault locators generally include the pen type, handheld type and portable visual fiber fault locator.


Pen-style visual fault locator, as showed in the picture below, is specially designed for field personnel who need an efficient and economical tool for fiber tracing, fiber routing and continuity checking in optical networks.
