The JDSU FBP-P1 is an analog video inspection probe microscope engineered for detailed examination of fiber optic connector end faces. Built around a 1/3-inch CMOS sensor and blue coaxial LED illumination, it delivers 200X magnification with a 550 μm horizontal field of view. The probe features in-probe focus adjustment and operates via NTSC video output through a 4-pin Hirose™ connector. Its handheld design and 240 cm cable enable inspection of hard-to-reach connectors without hardware disassembly.
