The JDSU FBP-P1-400 is a handheld analog video inspection probe microscope engineered for real-time examination of fiber optic connector end faces. Delivering 400X magnification with NTSC video output, this probe enables technicians to detect contamination, damage, and debris that compromise network performance. The integrated blue coaxial LED illumination and 1/3-inch CMOS sensor provide clear, magnified imagery across a 350 μm horizontal field of view, while manual focus control on the probe body ensures precise image clarity. Its compact, lightweight design and 240 cm cord facilitate inspection of connectors in restricted access areas, including those within patch panels and optical transceivers.
