FiBO® 300 Interferometer
Optical Fiber Endface Geometry Measurement
FiBO® 300 is a versatile phase-shifting interferometer for the advanced analysis of fiber optic endface geometry of bare fibers and non-standard connectors. The variable optical zoom has three different magnifications for viewing most fiber diameters and a wide range of holders and accessories can be used to easily mount testing samples.
