PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
Performance-packed
With SmartAuto multi-pulse acquisition, 37 dB dynamic range and best-in-class dead zones, FlexScan Quad OTDRs test multimode and single-mode networks – including FTTH PONs and POLANs up to 1:64 split ratio – while still detecting and measuring events <2 meters apart.
User-friendly: FlexScan OTDRs enable both expert and novice technicians to quickly, reliably and accurately detect, locate, identify and measure optical network components and faults. After applying industry-standard or user-set pass/fail criteria, the network is displayed using FlexScan’s intuitive, icon-based LinkMap view. Results may be printed to PDF and stored internally or externally. FlexScan automates test setup, shortens test time and simplifies results interpretation, improving test efficiency and cost.
Pocket-sized: FlexScan OTDRs truly fit in your pocket, yet still deliver all-day battery operation plus a large, bright, indoor/outdoor, 5-inch 800x480 touchscreen display. With large touch controls, you’ll never need a stylus.
All-in-one test capability: With optional connector inspection, integrated optical light source, power meter and VFL, FlexScan provides an all-in one solution, ensuring technicians have everything they need to locate and resolve optical network issues. Uploaded results may be viewed and professional reports may be generated using the included Windows-compatible TRM® 3.0 Test Results Manager software.
Available in Convenient, Cost-saving Installation and Troubleshooting Kits: Bundle FlexScan with choice of launch cable, FOCIS Flex and connector inspection probe and tips.
Easy reporting and archiving: Included FlexReporter Basic software suite works with AFL Test and Inspection instruments to provide a simple-to-use, high performance cloud enabled reporting platform. FlexReporter combines FlexApp, a mobile App that wirelessly transfers test results to FlexReporter-Cloud from the field with FlexReports, a fast, comprehensive, 3-step PC software reporting solution. The FlexReporter software suite was developed to make the complicated task of reporting faster, simpler, and easy-to-use.
FLEXSCAN FS300 MODELS AND KIT CONFIGURATIONS
FlexScan FS300-325 is a Quad OTDR (850/1300 nm Multimode + 1310/1550 nm Single-mode) offered in multiple kit configurations for cost-effective out-of-service FTTH PON and point-to-point newtwork installation verification and troubleshooting.
FlexScan FS300-325 includes an integrated red laser Visual Fault Locator (VFL) and is available with optional integrated optical light source (OLS), optical power meter (OPM) plus Bluetooth/Wi-Fi wireless communications.
FlexScan FS300-325 is available in five standard kit configurations:
BASIC Kit: Includes selected FlexScan, wrist strap, soft carry case, Quick Reference Guide plus FlexReports Basic software for viewing Test Results. Users requiring full reporting capability should upgrade to FlexReports Advanced. Soft case includes room for optional accessories such as connector cleaning supplies, fiber ring (launch cable) or FOCIS Flex connector inspection solution.
PLUS Kit: Adds a One-Click Cleaner, 150 m fiber ring (launch cable) plus FlexReports Advanced software with full reporting to a Basic Kit.
PRO Kit: Adds an auto-focusing FOCIS Flex Fiber Optic Connector Inspection System and user-selected adapter tips to Plus Kit.
BIPM Complete Kit: Adds OFI-BIPMe Bend-insensitive Optical Fiber Identifier with Power Meter to PRO Kit.
MPO Kit: Includes selected FlexScan and accessories, Multi-Fiber Switch, USB cable and 150 m fiber ring to connect FlexScan to Switch, plus Launch Cable to connect Switch to MPO-terminated multi-fiber network.

FlexScan® FS300 Quad OTDR
Dramatically Reduces Test Time
In SmartAuto mode, FlexScan OTDRs automatically analyze and test the network using a variety of network-optimized settings to precisely locate, characterize and identify network events with one button push. Loss and reflectance are measured for connectors, splices, splitters and macro-bends. FlexScan even checks for live fiber and verifies OTDR launch quality before initiating a test.
Simplifies Network Troubleshooting
LinkMap® color-coded icons enable even novice users to easily and accurately troubleshoot optical networks. LinkMap clearly identifies fiber start, end, connectors, splices, PON splitters, and macro-bends.
A LinkMap Summary provides end-to-end link length, loss and ORL. Loss and reflectance of detected events is compared to industry-standard or user-defined pass/fail thresholds and displayed with clear pass/fail indications. Users can instantly toggle between LinkMap and Trace views.
Multimode and Single-mode plus PON Testing in One OTDR
FlexScan Quad OTDRs are the ideal test tool for verifying and/or maintaining both singlemode and multimode networks. Unlike most Quad OTDRs, FS300 OTDRs test both point-topoint networks and FTTH PONs/Passive Optical LANs (POLANs).
Connectivity
FlexScan OTDRs easily pair with AFL's ward-winning FOCIS® family of connector inspection probes for fast, easy single-fiber and/or multi-fiber connector end-face inspection. Images and pass/fail results can be transferred to the FlexScan for display and/or archiving with OTDR results.
FlexScan results can be transferred wirelessly via the free FlexScan App to a smart device for real-time reporting using the included Windows-based TRM® 3.0 Test Results Manager software. Monitoring test results in real-time can detect mistakes while the tech is still in the field, preventing future truck rolls.
OTDR, OLTS, and VFL Testing with a Single Tool
FlexScan optionally includes a Wave ID optical light source (OLS) and optical power meter (OPM). With Wave ID, the OPM auto-synchronizes to a single or multi-wavelength Wave ID optical signal transmitted by an AFL light source. The OPM reports detected wavelengths and measures power and loss at each wavelength, saving significant test time and eliminating setup errors.
The integrated Visual Fault Locator’s eye-safe red laser enables users to visually pinpoint the location of macro-bends and fiber breaks often found in splice closures and fiber cabinets.
