Abstract:
1. A fiber optic inspection microscope comprising: an objective lens; an optical detector; an image detector; an illumination source; a first beamsplitter; and a second beamsplitter; wherein said first beamsplitter is in a first optical path between said objective lens, said image detector and said optical detector; wherein said first beamsplitter allows passage of an optical image to said image detector; wherein said first beamsplitter directs optical energy to said optical detector; wherein said second beamsplitter is in a second optical path between said illumination source and said objective lens; wherein said second beamsplitter directs light from said illumination source to said objective lens; and wherein said inspection microscope is connectable to an optical fiber connector and the inspection microscope is configured to perform both measuring of an optical power present on the optical fiber connector and imaging an end face of the optical fiber connector without disconnecting the inspection microscope from the optical fiber connector.
