The density demands of today’s networks are driving more demand for multi-fiber connectivity. As the adoption of multi-fiber connectors becomes more prevalent in data centers, the ability to test these types of connections accurately and quickly has become even more critical. AFL’s Multi-fiber switch enables the testing of 12-fiber cables without the need to use a breakout cable. The switch allows you to utilize a single piece of test equipment to seamlessly cycle through all of the fibers in a connector regardless of polarity without having to disconnect and reconnect your test equipment making the testing of your network more efficient, saving you both time and money. AFL’s Multi-fiber switch is compatible with your existing OTDR, OLTS and Certification equipment.
