The FI-10 and FI-11 fiber identifiers are rugged, portable, easy-to-use instruments for installation and maintenance that identify optical fibers by detecting the optical signals transmitted through a singlemode fiber. By using local detection technology (non-destructive macrobend detection), they eliminate the need to open the fiber at the splice point for identification. This, in turn, eliminates the probability of interrupting service.
