Safety

Your technicians look at lasers every day

VisiMap eliminates direct laser viewing from multi-strand fiber identification. Indirect viewing via screen. LED options that remove lasers entirely.

The risk

A compliance gap most facilities don't realize they have

FDA regulates lasers over 5mW as Class 3B. The Laser Safety Institute says any facility using lasers over 5mW should designate a Laser Safety Officer. Most don't.

The problem

Unregulated VFL power levels

Independent testing confirms many VFLs are mislabeled — actual output power can be 10x the stated level on the label. Class 3B lasers require a designated Laser Safety Officer.

The exposure

Direct fiber endface viewing

Traditional VFL testing requires technicians to look directly at fiber endfaces in high-density environments — often at distances under 3 feet from the light source.

The solution

How VisiMap eliminates laser exposure risk

Indirect viewing

Screen-based identification

Technicians view fiber status on a tablet or smartphone screen — never the fiber endface. The 3.9mm otoscope camera resolves impossible viewing angles in dense panels.

LED option

Zero laser risk

The FCM-12LED uses LEDs entirely — removing laser risk from the equation across multimode, single-mode, and FTTX last-mile applications.

Eye-safe VFLs

Proprietary mini-VFL modules

The FCM-6VFL uses proprietary mini-VFLs at eye-safe power levels. Field-swappable, hard-wired, no batteries — designed for safe operation.

Audible confirmation

Hands-free, eyes-free

Far end decoders announce strand identification audibly — in any language or code. Pair with Bluetooth headphones for noisy environments.

Protect your team

Ask your team: does your facility have a designated Laser Safety Officer? If not, and your techs use VFLs over 5mW, that's a compliance gap VisiMap closes on day one.
