TEKCN TC-200-V Fiber Optic Identifier with Built-in VFL | 750–1700nm, Live Fiber Detection, 60-Hour Battery

TEKCN TC-200-V Fiber Optic Identifier with Built-in VFL – Live Fiber Detection, 750–1700nm

The TEKCN TC-200-V is a professional 2-in-1 handheld fiber optic identifier and visual fault locator (VFL) designed for field technicians who need fast, non-destructive fiber identification on live networks. Whether you're tracing fibers in a crowded splice tray, verifying continuity on an active FTTH link, or locating faults with the built-in 650nm red laser, the TC-200-V delivers reliable results in a compact, pen-style body that fits in your shirt pocket.

With a broad 750–1700nm identification wavelength range, an InGaAs detector, and support for 270Hz / 1kHz / 2kHz tone signals, the TC-200-V works with virtually any singlemode or multimode fiber and any standard light source or OTDR. Powered by 2×AA batteries with over 60 hours of runtime, it's the go-to identifier for FTTH installation, telecom maintenance, and CATV fiber plant work.

Key Features

• Non-Destructive Live Fiber Identification: Identify active fibers without interrupting service — works on SM and MM fibers up to 3mm diameter
• 750–1700nm Wavelength Range: Covers all standard telecom wavelengths (850nm, 1310nm, 1490nm, 1550nm, 1625nm) in a single instrument
• InGaAs Detector: High-sensitivity detector with minimum detection power of -35dBm at 1550nm and -30dBm at 1310nm
• Built-in 650nm VFL (10mW): Integrated visual fault locator for locating breaks, bends, and bad connectors — no separate VFL tool needed
• 270Hz / 1kHz / 2kHz Tone Detection: Compatible with all standard modulated light sources and OTDRs for fiber tracing
• LED Display: Clear, instant readout for fast field identification without complex menus
• 60+ Hour Battery Life: Runs on 2×AA alkaline batteries — long runtime for all-day field work without recharging
• Compact Pen-Style Design: 230×43×48mm, 200g — lightweight and pocket-sized for easy carry on any job site
• 12-Month Warranty included

Ideal Applications

• FTTH / FTTx fiber identification and acceptance testing
• Telecom network maintenance and fiber tracing
• CATV fiber plant troubleshooting
• Data center fiber management and patching
• Locating fiber breaks and bad connectors with built-in VFL
• Live network fiber identification without service interruption

TC-200-V vs. Standard Fiber Identifiers

Unlike basic fiber identifiers that only detect signal presence, the TC-200-V combines fiber identification and visual fault location in one tool. The built-in 650nm VFL eliminates the need to carry a separate fault locator, saving cost and bag space. Its wide 750–1700nm range means it works across legacy and modern network wavelengths — making it a versatile choice for technicians working across multiple network types.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: Can the TC-200-V identify fibers on a live network without cutting service?
A: Yes. The TC-200-V uses non-destructive macro-bending detection to identify active fibers without interrupting traffic — making it safe for use on live FTTH, telecom, and CATV networks.

Q: What is the difference between the TC-200-V and the TC-200?
A: The TC-200-V is a fiber optic identifier with a built-in VFL, designed for fiber tracing and live identification. The TC-200 is an optical power meter with VFL, designed for measuring optical power levels. They serve complementary roles in fiber testing.

Q: What fiber types does the TC-200-V support?
A: The TC-200-V supports both singlemode (SM) and multimode (MM) fibers with a diameter of up to 3mm, covering standard 250µm, 900µm, 2mm, and 3mm jacket sizes.

Q: Does the TC-200-V work with all light sources and OTDRs?
A: Yes. It detects 270Hz, 1kHz, and 2kHz modulated signals, which are the standard tone frequencies used by virtually all optical light sources and OTDRs on the market.

Q: What warranty does the TC-200-V come with?
A: The TC-200-V includes a 12-month warranty. For support, bulk pricing, or technical questions, contact us at info@splicermarket.com.
