The AFL FlexScan Ts100 is a comprehensive optical troubleshooter designed for quick and efficient diagnosis of single-mode fiber optic networks. This powerful tool simplifies testing, reduces downtime, and empowers technicians with the ability to identify, locate, and resolve network issues with ease. Leveraging advanced technologies like SmartAuto and LinkMap, the TS100 automates complex tasks, making it ideal for field technicians of all skill levels.
Streamlined Network Diagnostics with the TS100
The TS100 simplifies network testing by automatically configuring settings and measuring key parameters with a single button press. Connect the TS100 to a live GPON or 10GPON network, press start, and within seconds, the device displays received power levels, link length, loss, and ORL. Results are presented using color-coded LinkMap icons, allowing for immediate identification of pass/fail status based on industry standards or user-defined thresholds. The TS100 goes beyond simple diagnostics by providing recommended corrective actions based on the test results, facilitating faster problem resolution.
User-Friendly Interface and Automated Testing
Designed for field technicians with varying levels of expertise, the TS100 requires minimal training. AFL’s SmartAuto technology automatically configures test settings, eliminating the need for manual adjustments and specialized OTDR knowledge. Test results are presented in an intuitive format, utilizing color-coded icons that clearly indicate the health of connections, splices, and splitters. This streamlined approach ensures efficient testing and minimizes the potential for human error.
Comprehensive Test Capabilities in One Device
The TS100 integrates multiple functionalities into a single portable device, including a Visual Fault Locator (VFL), power meter, and light source. This all-in-one capability eliminates the need for multiple tools, streamlining the testing process and reducing equipment costs. Furthermore, the TS100 is compatible with AFL’s FOCIS family of inspection scopes, enabling comprehensive fiber inspection and analysis. The integrated source and power meter support fiber-identifying tones and Wave ID insertion loss testing, providing advanced troubleshooting capabilities.
Built for the Field: Durable and Portable
With its compact design and lightweight construction, the TS100 is ideal for field use. The device features a large, bright touchscreen display that is easily readable in both indoor and outdoor environments. A long-lasting rechargeable battery ensures all-day operation, minimizing downtime and maximizing productivity.
Simplified Reporting and Data Management
The TS100 is compatible with AFL’s FlexReporter Basic software suite, providing a seamless reporting and data management solution. This cloud-enabled platform allows technicians to wirelessly transfer test results from the field to the cloud using the FlexApp mobile app. FlexReports PC software provides a fast and easy way to generate comprehensive reports. This streamlined reporting process simplifies documentation and enhances workflow efficiency.
TS100 Model Variations and Convenient Kits
The TS100 is available in several models, each tailored to specific application requirements: the TS100-60 for cost-effective live PON troubleshooting and the TS100-70 for extended range testing. AFL also offers convenient kits that bundle the TS100 with essential accessories like launch cables, FOCIS Flex connector inspection probes, and FlexReporter software, providing a complete solution for optical network testing and maintenance. These kits are available in BASIC, PLUS, and PRO configurations to meet varying needs and budgets.
