Description
The Fluke Networks FQM-M Fiber QuickMap™ is a fast, easy-to-use multimode fiber distance and fault locator designed to bridge the gap between simple Visual Fault Locators (VFLs) and complex OTDRs. It works on multimode fibers (50/125 µm or 62.5/125 µm) with an 850 nm output wavelength, measuring distances up to 4,921 ft (1,500 m) in just six seconds.
Ideal for installers and network technicians, Fiber QuickMap™ quickly identifies high-loss splices, severe bends, dirty connectors, breaks, and other causes of signal degradation. It also detects live fiber signals before testing to prevent equipment damage. With its quick one-button operation, large backlit display, and rugged, portable design, the FQM-M saves hours of troubleshooting time in the field.
