The JDSU Westover FBP-series video probe microscopes provide the ultimate fiber
inspection tool. The key components of the probe include an integrated light source,
a 1/3-inch complementary metal oxide semiconductor (CMOS) video camera, a
focusing mechanism, a single- or dual-magnification (200/400X) control, and an
image capture button. It is powered through the universal serial bus (USB) port and
uses a blue coaxial light emitting diode (LED) light source with an advanced camera
system to produce the highest resolution possible. It fits and operates comfortably and
easily in-hand, letting users inspect hard-to-reach connectors that are installed on
backside of patch panels or inside optical devices. The focus control is conveniently
located on the probe to easily adjust the focus of the fiber image, while the dualmagnification control lets users quickly change between high- and low-magnification
views. The probe offers a built-in QuickCapture™ button to instantly capture the fiber
end face image on the display, which complements its use with JDSU optical test
units
