Product Overview
CFS-2 is part of the test equipment range built by Ever Expresslink Limited in Ningbo, China.
It is one of 15 items in this range. A typical application is fusion splicing outside plant and drop cable. What the range is built to give you there: faster fault localisation than route walking.
The problem it addresses is splice quality that varies with the technician and the weather. A practical note that applies across this range: store batteries charged and instruments capped between jobs. Specifications for a particular configuration are confirmed on the quotation rather than assumed from the designation.
Key Benefits
- Supplied as CFS-2, so the part you receive matches the designation you ordered against
- Fiber identification before anyone cuts anything
- Consistent splice quality independent of who is on shift
- Inspection that turns contamination from a theory into a picture
- Measured evidence for handover rather than an assurance
Problems It Solves
- Links handed over with no measured evidence that they meet the budget
- Faults localised by walking the route instead of by measurement
- Live fibres cut because nobody checked whether traffic was present
- Splice quality that varies with the technician and the weather
Application Scenarios
- Inspecting end faces on an assembly bench
- Certifying a newly installed link against its budget
- Localising a break during an emergency restoration
- Identifying the live fiber in a congested closure
Who It Is For
- Network maintenance and restoration crews
- Splicing teams working on outside plant
- Laboratories and equipment manufacturers
- Training centers teaching fiber practice
Technical Features
- Tool boxes that carry a complete working kit
- Fusion splicers with automatic alignment and loss estimation
- Optical power meters and light sources for loss measurement
- Fiber identifiers for detecting traffic without disconnecting
Materials
- Impact-resistant instrument housings
- Precision optical detectors and sources
- Rechargeable battery packs
- Carrying cases and tool boxes

Handling CFS-2
Before You Order
- Set a reference with the same cords you will use for the measurement
- Clean and inspect every connector before it goes into a test setup
- Use a fiber identifier before cutting or disconnecting anything
In Service

- Store batteries charged and instruments capped between jobs
Questions About CFS-2
What do you need from us to quote CFS-2?
The quantity, the destination and anything that has to match on your side: connector and polish at each end, fiber mode and core size, and length where the item is an assembly. If you are matching a part you already buy, send the sample and we will quote against it.
Do the fusion splicers handle drop cable and ribbon?
Splicer capability varies by model. Tell us what cable types your crews actually splice and we will confirm which model covers them, rather than you discovering a limit on site.
Is calibration documentation available?
Calibration documentation can be supplied with measurement instruments on request. Say so on the order, because it is normally prepared at dispatch.
Can you supply complete tool kits rather than individual instruments?
Yes. Optical tool boxes are supplied as working kits, which is usually more practical than assembling a kit from separately sourced items.
What is the minimum kit for certifying a link?
A light source and power meter pair at the wavelengths you operate at, reference cords, an inspection scope and cleaning consumables. That combination gives you a defensible loss measurement and evidence that the end faces were clean.
