The OLC-M Mini OTDR Launch Cable is an essential tool for verifying the integrity of fiber optic networks, especially in long-distance or campus LAN installations with splices. This compact, pocket-sized launch cable is designed for easy handling and portability, making it ideal for field use. It helps ensure accurate OTDR measurements by eliminating the "Dead Zone" caused by reflections from the OTDR's own connector. The robust design and protective caps keep the connectors clean and secure. Compatible with almost all OTDRs, it is particularly effective when used with the OPTOKON MOT-700 Mini OTDR series.
Features:
- Portable packaging – small, lightweight design
- Ergonomic design fits comfortably in hand for extended periods
- The length of the launch cable is defined by the customer
- Various types of optical connectors offer increased versatility and convenience
- Optical connectors are dust and drop protected by a snap-on cover
