AFL inspection adapter tips are essential accessories for maintaining the integrity of fiber connections. Designed for performance, accuracy and reliability during inspection of cables and connectors, they let you identify defects and contamination with full clarity. They work seamlessly with AFL inspection devices, enabling inspection of bulkheads, MPO trunks, patch cords and many other infrastructure elements — reducing downtime and simplifying the workflow.

Tips for MPO/MTP connectors

Tips for FOCIS Lightning®/Lightning2 cover inspection of MPO bulkheads found in panels and pre-term modules. Fully keyed (MPO-12/24 and MPO-16/32), partially keyed (fitting both standards) and keyless versions are available. For single-mode MPO connectors with an 8° angle (APC), select a tip with a matching angle. Examples: FLTNG-01-M12A (MPO-12/24 APC), FLTNG-01-M16U (MPO-16/32 UPC), FLTNG-01-MPU (partial key).
