AFL's FlexScan TS100 Optical Troubleshooter is an easy-to-use, all-in-one tool for detecting, identifying, locating, and resolving single-mode optical network issues. The TS100 has auto-configured settings to quickly measure received power, link length, loss, and ORL with the push of a button. The results are displayed using color-coded LinkMap icons for easy analysis. The FlexScan TS100 automates testing, shortens test time, interprets results, and recommends corrective actions, improving the efficiency of frontline technicians and reducing costs.
Diagnose your network in seconds
Just press Start and the TS100 immediately measures and displays received power levels when connected to a live GPON and/or 10GPON network. Within seconds, link length, loss, and ORL are displayed, along with faults exceeding industry or user-set pass/fail limits. The TS100 even recommends corrective actions based on test results making it easier for technicians to find and fix network problems.
Requires little, if any, training
Designed primarily for field technicians activating and maintaining broadband access networks, the TS100 requires minimal training and no OTDR experience. SmartAuto auto-configures test settings and presents network test results in easy-to-understand, color-coded icons indicating passing or failing connections, splices, and splitters.
All-in-one test capability
The FlexScan TS100 includes an integrated VFL, power meter, and light source. It can be easily paired to AFL’s award-winning FOCIS family of inspection scopes, ensuring technicians have everything they need to locate and quickly resolve optical network issues. The source and power meter generate and detect fiber-identifying tones and support Wave ID insertion loss testing featuring automatic wavelength identification and synchronization.
Designed for field use
FlexScan TS100 is small (3.5 x 6 x 1.75 in (86 x 160 x 43 mm)) and weighs less than a pound (0.4 kg). It has a large, bright indoor/outdoor touchscreen, and a rechargeable battery that lasts >12 hours for all-day operation.
Multiple storing and reporting options
Results can be stored internally, saved to a USB, or wirelessly uploaded via the free FlexScan App for real-time reporting using the included TRM® 3.0 Test Results Manager software.
Convenient cost-saving kits
Bundle the FlexScan TS100 with your choice of launch cable and FOCIS Flex connector inspection probe with adapter tips for significant cost-savings!
Kit Configurations
All kits include selected FlexScan TS100 with AC charger, battery, carry strap, SC/2.5 mm connector adapters, TRM 3.0, USB cable, and soft carry case. PLUS kits add a 150 m Fiber Ring, One-Click cleaner, and upgrade to TRM 3.0 Advanced software. PRO kits add a FOCIS® Flex auto-focusing connector inspection probe with IEC pass/fail analysis and two adapter tips. TS100s are manufactured with APC connectors.
Identifies & Locates Faults - Recommends Corrective Action
TS100 automatically detects network events such as connections, splices, splitters, and macro-bends. It displays these events with LinkMap color-coded icons that are easy-to-read and enable users to quickly identify faults requiring action. Touching each event icon displays its pass/fail status, location, loss, and reflectance as well as recommended corrective actions. More detail may be obtained by touching the measurement values for failing events.
Connectivity
Results can be stored internally, saved to a USB, or wirelessly uploaded via the free FlexScan App to a smart device for real-time reporting using the included TRM 3.0 Test Results Manager PC-based software. This real-time monitoring can help avoid mistakes in the field that will require future truck rolls.
FlexScan TS100 also pairs easily with AFL's award-winning FOCIS family of connector inspection probes for fast, easy one-button-push inspection of single-fiber and/or multifiber connector end-faces. Inspection data can be saved with TS100 results internally or transferred for archiving.
