JDSU FBP-PX600 Video inspection QuickCapture probe microscope, PAL, 200/400X, 6-pin out w/o USB/barrel

The JDSU FBP-PX600 is a handheld video inspection probe microscope engineered for real-time examination of fiber optic connector end faces. It delivers dual magnification (200X and 400X) through a 1/3-inch CMOS sensor with PAL video output, enabling technicians to inspect connectors in confined spaces without equipment disassembly. The integrated QuickCapture™ button captures fiber end-face images instantly for documentation and analysis, while internal blue LED illumination with over 100,000 hours of operational life provides coaxial lighting across both magnification levels.
