FX160 FiberBEAST™

Handheld Bidirectional OLTS and OTDR for FTTx, PON, and Point-to-Point Fibre Networks

The FX160 FibreBEAST™ simplifies fibre testing by combining bidirectional insertion loss (IL), optical return loss (ORL), and OTDR measurements into a single automated test report. Using communication over the fibre under test, paired devices allow one technician to complete bidirectional testing without needing to return to the remote end.

Designed for efficient field testing, the FX160 FibreBEAST™ performs automated bidirectional IL and ORL measurements, along with unidirectional OTDR testing, across up to three wavelengths through a single test port. This streamlined approach helps reduce testing time while delivering accurate and reliable results.

  • Available with the innovative Field Replaceable Optical Connector Protector System (US Patent 12,481,111), designed to extend equipment life, minimise downtime, and improve field productivity.
  • Rugged handheld construction built to withstand demanding field environments.
  • High-resolution 5-inch TFT colour touchscreen for indoor and outdoor applications.
  • Fast start-up time for quick fibre fault detection and restoration.
  • User-friendly interface featuring touchscreen controls and dedicated function keys for simple navigation.
  • Internal data storage.
  • Micro-USB OTG connectivity for flash drives, fibre inspection probes, and data transfers.
  • Rechargeable lithium polymer battery with capacity monitoring, low-voltage alerts, and automatic power-off functionality.
  • More than 9 hours of continuous operation on a single charge.
  • Built-In Wi-Fi Capabilities:
  • Perform software updates through a Windows® PC.
  • Upload test data directly to Fiberizer® Cloud using an internet connection.
  • Connect wirelessly to compatible fibre inspection microscopes.
  • Built-In Bluetooth® Connectivity:
  • Transfer test results to mobile devices or Windows® computers.
  • Enable remote measurements using EZ Remote, VNC, or integrated web-based control software.
  • Key Features
  • Automated bidirectional insertion loss and optical return loss testing with one-way OTDR analysis.
  • Supports testing at up to three wavelengths.
  • 1310 nm, 1550 nm, and 1625 nm for OLTS, ORL, and OTDR.
  • Insertion loss measurement range of up to 40 dB.
  • PON-optimised OTDR options for testing networks with single or cascaded splitters.
  • Optimised dead-zone performance for FTTx and PON environments:
  • Typical event dead zone: 0.8 m
  • Typical attenuation dead zone: 3.5 m
  • Customisable pass/fail thresholds.
  • Fast OLTS and ORL testing completed in 15 seconds.
  • Generates combined OLTS and OTDR reports directly on the device.
  • Auto Mode simplifies set-up, event detection, and trace analysis.
  • PON OTDR Smart Link Mapping supports balanced, unbalanced, and tap-based PON architectures.
  • Measurement markers for distance, attenuation, reflectance, and splice loss analysis.
  • Additional OPM port for loopback referencing and power measurements.
  • Optional VFL for quick fibre identification and fault detection.
