Description

Fiber array

Back light sold separately 
One of the most common failures is the stock incandescent back light bulb overheats, causing the fiber optic to melt. This leads to extremely dim screens, some becoming completely unreadable. At Monitech we have developed the perfect replacement for the Fiber optic backlight. We have the Short version you see here, and we also carry the Long version. For 2711-Be and 2711K5 series Click here to see the long Fiber Optic version.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

What does the PanelView 550 Fiber Optic Short kit include?

The kit includes a brand-new 7″ fiber‑optic light guide (MB550FOS), a cable kit, and an installation guide. It's a plug‑and‑play solution—no rewiring or reprogramming required.

Which Allen‑Bradley models is this compatible with?

This short fiber‑optic guide is specifically designed for the 2711‑T5 series: including models like T5A10L1, T5A12L1, T5A14L1, T5A15L1, T5A16L1, T5A1L1, T5A20L1, T5A2L1, T5A3L1, T5A5L1, T5A8L1, and T5A9L1.

Why do I need this replacement?

The original incandescent backlight heats the fiber optics, causing them to melt or degrade—resulting in dim, uneven, or unreadable screens. The MB550FOS restores clarity and brightness.

Is a new backlight required?

Yes. To prevent future heat damage, pair the fiber‑optic kit with Monitech’s LED backlight. It emits minimal heat and is a direct replacement for the OEM incandescent bulb.

How difficult is the installation?

Installation is straightforward and should take under 20 minutes. Detailed instructions are included. If you’d prefer, Monitech also offers expert installation support.

What warranty comes with this product?

All Monitech-installed kits, including the MB550FOS, are covered under our standard warranty. Visit our Terms of Warranty page for full details.

What if it's not compatible with my unit?

If we determine before shipment that it’s not compatible with your controller, you’ll be notified immediately. Standard return policy applies to all others. Please contact us with any questions before purchasing.
