Fiber Optic Inspection and Testing
1. Attach test probes to light source and power meter
4. Connect the jumper (link) to be tested to the zeroed
assembly.
2. Insert probes into test connectors
3. Mate connectors together and ‘zero’ power meter
5. With the link in place, a new power reading may be
taken
Patented optical test and measurement system
Traditional optical test harnesses are expensive
and easily contaminated in normal use. Glenair's test
probe, in conjunction with our precise-mating test
adapter, offers a complete solution to optical test
and measurement. The probe design offers precision
alignment with the use of ceramic ferrules and
alignment sleeves. The spring design offers the same
termination pressure as the MIL-PRF-29504 terminus.
The built-in insertion and removal tool on the test probe
allows for quick probing from one channel to the next
with repeatable performance. The probe also houses a
rubber strain-relief boot to protect the optical fiber from
potential bend stress.
Specified by advanced military aircraft programs
The Glenair fiber optic test probe system has
become a standard tool for the field testing of fiber
optic media in front-line fighter jets and other advanced
aircraft. With the upgrading of so many avionic
systems to fiber optics, the need for fast and efficient
troubleshooting equipment has become paramount.
The traditionally heavy and expensive test harnesses
of the past are now being replaced with Glenair's
lightweight and easy-to-use fiber optic test probes and
adapters.

Connector previously
required an expensive
test harness with 29
fiber optic terminations.
Today, this test assembly
has been replaced by
Glenair with a single
disposable probe
jumper and a re-usable
connector adapter. The
system is now being
used in advanced
military aircraft
programs as well as in
naval weapons systems,
sonar, video, audio, and
a wide range of other
military and commercial
applications.
