Automated focus adjustment
Ensures that each connector image is captured at maximum quality for enhanced
identification of defects.
Focus protection
Prevents image capture if focus is not adjusted properly. This ensures that no
performance-affecting defects or residues are ignored in the analysis, thus
preventing the reporting of false-positive results.
Figure 1. An out-of-focus image can hide critical defects capable of delivering a “pass” verdict.
Figure 2. An optimized focus adjustment will ensure that all defects affecting performances are seen.
Operation modes
The FIP-435B scope is compatible with iOS and Android devices. Live video feed
is streamed via WiFi without any wired connection required between the scope
and the smart device. The wireless scope is also compatible with EXFO’s FTB
and MaxTester platforms (connected via USB cable or WiFi) as well as
ConnectorMax2 software (on a Windows-based PC.
The FIP-4X0B Series scopes (FIP-410B/FIP-420B and FIP-430B) are USB-wired
inspection scopes compatible with EXFO’s FTB and MaxTester platforms as well
as ConnectorMax2 software (on a Windows-based PC).
FIP-400B Fiber Inspection Scope Series
SCREENLESS OPERATION
Thanks to the pass/fail LED, users can perform connector certification without
having to look at their smartphone or MaxTester display screen to view the
results. Users can simply focus on getting ready for their next inspection
while being able to use both hands in the process.
User performs connector certification without looking at their smart device.
FAIL
User can attempt to clean connector first, or look at their smart device
screen to see the problem (i.e., dirty or damaged).
PASS
User goes to the next inspection point WITHOUT
looking at a screen.
Dirty=must clean the connector
Damaged=must replace the connector
FIP-400B UNIVERSAL COMPATIBILITY
Thanks to its USB port, the FIP-400B Series is compatible with the entire FTB
ecosystem, the MaxTester 700B OTDR Series, the MaxTester 940/945 OLTS, the
MAX-FIP display, LTB platforms and PCs and laptops.

GET ACCURATE INSPECTION RESULTS
The autofocus feature in the FIP-430B and FIP-435B not only greatly
facilitates inspection, but also enables optimized focus adjustment to ensure
detection of all defects capable of affecting connector performance.
The system self-adjusts the image centering to ensure that all inspection
zones are visible, and then automatically adjusts the focus to achieve the
best optical resolution. Next, the IEC (or custom) standard is applied to
deliver accurate certification results in a snap. Fussing with image focusing,
centering and inaccurate analysis results are now things of the past.

SEMI-AUTOMATED MULTIFIBER INSPECTION
Users can quickly and easily inspect all multiple- and single-row MPO
connectors on densely populated panels without missing any fibers or dealing
with the hassle of manipulating one or multiple scanning knobs–and do it right
the first time. The FIPT-400-MF uses a trigger to efficiently scan all fibers.
These features make it possible to inspect densely populated panels without
having to disturb adjacent fibers that may be carrying information. Users can
easily operate the FIPT-400-MF with just one hand–it provides automated and
fumble-free fiber inspection.
COMPATIBLE WITH VARIOUS SINGLE-FIBER AND MULTIFIBER CONNECTORS
EXFO offers multiple patchcord tips and bulkhead adapters for both single
fiber and multifiber applications. These tips and adapters are built to fit a
wide range of fiber connector types and designs that are currently used in the
field including FC, SC, LC, ST for UPC and APC or FTTH/FTTA connectors. The
MPO tip is compatible with single- and dual-row multifiber connectors
regardless of the connector type. For further information, please refer to our
tip adapter guide.

for 16-32 fiber connectors
Applications also include Q-ODC-12®, OptiTip® and HMFOC® connectors. Simply
swap tips for an easy transition from single to multifiber using the same MF-
ready inspection scope.

AUTOMATIC PASS/FAIL CONNECTOR CERTIFICATION
Thanks to its advanced onboard software algorithm, ConnectorMax2 performs
automated pass/fail analysis within seconds and ensures that no fibers are
skipped. · No need to follow fibers and count them manually: the interface
numbers each fiber automatically and assesses the pass/fail status
of the entire connector as well as each individual fiber.
EXFO’s interface enables a quick assessment of the entire multifiber connector
in a single view. · Access single fiber as well as the entire connector
pass/fail status all at once by means of a simple interface without
encountering
fail status that could be caused by unused or missing fibers. · Quickly
navigate through individual high-resolution fiber images on demand by
selecting fibers in the connector view or simply by
swiping over the fiber image.
ConnectorMax supports various fiber configurations within multifiber
connectors. This feature speeds up the inspection and analysis process by
skipping unused fiber locations.
