The Sumix Manta C is a wide field-of-view microscope probe for single-fiber inspection, designed to ensure cleanliness of the fiber end face and ferrule surface - ideal for large-fiber and large-core military connectors. It supports a broad range of connector types, including LC, FC, SC, MU, E2000™, CS®, SN®, MDC, Arinc, Avim, mini-Avim, SMA, high-power SMA, and MIL-spec termini, on both patch cord and bulkhead sides. MTP®/MPO inspection is available in two scans (2 seconds each). Suitable for field, lab and manufacturing environments, the Manta C is essential for quality control, incoming inspection, and network troubleshooting.
Wide field of view (2.26 × 1.27 mm)*
Check the fiber end face along with the surrounding ferrule surface. Inspect large fiber and large-core military connectors. * Compared to other handheld microscopes for single-fiber inspection.
High-resolution imaging
Achieve precise inspection results with 1.8 µm optical resolution and 0.59 µm/pixel camera resolution.
PM fibre inspection
Control and measure the angular alignment of the stress elements in polarisation-maintaining (PM) fibres.
Automatic focus
Capture sharp, repeatable images at the push of a button.
High-speed operation
Get a Pass/Fail report for a single-fiber connector in 1 second. Inspect MPO in two fast scans (~2 seconds each), with a manual shift in between.
