    EXFO ConnectorMax MPO Link Test Solution

    Feb. 20, 2019
    The EXFO ConnectorMax MPO Link Test Solution takes the three essential tests needed to validate MPO-12 and MPO-24 links—polarity, continuity, and connector cleanliness—and combines them into one automated instrument. It pairs a light source at one end of the cable with a fiber inspection probe for analysis at the other end—which EXFO asserts is a first in the industry.

    The EXFO ConnectorMax MPO Link Test Solution takes the three essential tests needed to validate MPO-12 and MPO-24 links—polarity, continuity, and connector cleanliness—and combines them into one automated instrument. It pairs a light source at one end of the cable with a fiber inspection probe for analysis at the other end—which EXFO asserts is a first in the industry. Results are loaded into the ConnectorMax software application for mobile devices that provides clear pass/fail status and reporting functions, making it easy for technicians to perform and view the results of all three of these tests on the spot.

    Judge’s comment: “Timely and needed solution as the use of MPO cables/connectors is increasing and from real world experience polarity and connector cleanliness are key issues. Having a simple testing solution would be beneficial.”
