Selection Notes
- Typically selected when technicians want to carry one handheld unit for both power/loss checks (OPM) and quick visual fault tracing (VFL), and the team can keep a consistent routine for wavelength selection, reference setting, and mode switching.
- May not be appropriate for organizations that cannot standardize the OPM measurement-range variant and the VFL output-power option, or where crews frequently share devices without a consistent reset/cleaning habit, since mixed configurations and leftover settings commonly reduce measurement comparability and slow troubleshooting.
Feature Details
- Absolute and Relative Power Measurement: Displays both linear (mW) and non-linear (dB) values for precise readings.
- Self-Calibration Function: Users can manually calibrate the device for better accuracy.
- Red Light Fault Detection: Supports constant and flashing modes to help locate fiber breaks and faults.
- Wavelength Memory Function: Automatically recalls the last used wavelength.
- Multiple Power Supply Options: Supports both battery and external power for flexible operation.
Application Details
- Absolute Power Measurement:When a fiber with a known 1310 nm wavelength is connected, the device displays both linear and logarithmic power values.
- Relative Power Measurement:Allows setting a reference power level for measuring signal loss in fiber optic networks.
