Description
The Greenlee Communications FI-100 Optical Fiber Identifier can
quickly identify the direction of transmitted fiber and display the relative
core power without interrupting the current service. The FI-100 detects
modulations of 270 Hz, 1 kHz, and 2 kHz with an audible tone and LED
indication.
There are four adapter heads available: ø 0.25, ø 0.9, ø 2.0, and ø 3.0.
This tool is powered by two AAA alkaline batteries.
