Kingfisher's unique and innovate MPO Visual Cable Verifier Kit is a quick, versatile and inexpensive way to check out overall MPO cable installations and patch leads for polarity and continuity. Just connect the source, and view the far end with the microscope to observe the repeating color pattern at the far end. The colour sequence indicates the connection type. While doing this, the user can also check if the overall connector end is clean. This solution is inexpensive and easily scalable to any number of fibers. (a 12 fiber connector is shown in the illustration)
