Key Features

Engineered For Performance

Transceiver Diagnostics

Loops transmitted optical signal back to the receiver port, enabling transceiver health checks, BERT testing, and port verification without a remote end.

Compact Form Factor

Short fiber length creates a small, portable test accessory that fits easily in technician tool kits and test equipment cases.

Multi-Connector Options

Available in all standard connector types (LC, SC, FC, ST) and fiber modes to match any equipment interface.

Typical Applications

01

SFP/QSFP Transceiver Testing

Verifying transceiver transmit power, receive sensitivity, and proper operation during hardware acceptance and troubleshooting.

02

Network Port Verification

Confirming switch, router, and server fiber port functionality during commissioning, maintenance, and fault isolation.

03

Bit Error Rate Testing

BERT and RFC 2544 performance testing where a local loopback provides a known-good fiber path for baseline measurements.
