The HD2 display combines performance and versatility in a durable device that fits comfortably in the user’s hand. Used for field inspection of optical fiber, the HD2 incorporates a variety of features that enable portability and efficiency. All models include a 3.5-inch thin film transistor (TFT) liquid crystal display (LCD) and an innovative GripSwitch that conserves battery life with instant-ON functionality when holding the unit in-hand, and powers OFF when set down. It is equipped with a continuous-ON feature for hands-free operation. With its durable design and rugged enclosure, the HD2 ensures excellent performance during field applications.
Additional features available in certain models include an integrated patch cord microscope (PCM) to inspect male connectors, and a visual fault locator (VFL) to locate damaged or broken optical fibers.
Note: All JDSU HD-series analog displays are equipped with a 4-pin probe input. A separate converter (FBPP-DPAC1) is required for use with 6-pin probes.
