Pocket-sized fibre testers

30 April 2008 Test & Measurement

Comtest is making available JDSU's pocket-sized family of fibre-optic testers. The family of products includes power meters and laser sources designed for specific applications in telecommunications, cable and enterprise environments.

Addressing basic functionalities needed for fibre-optic power measurement and loss testing, these light sources and optical power meters provide accurate measurements in a simple, entry-level unit. Just 10 cm long, the testers are also fully interoperable with JDSU's fibre inspection and cleaning solutions by providing results from the device under test (DUT) once the fibre is inspected and cleaned.

The range includes the OLP-5, OLP-6, and OLP-8 pocket-sized optical power meters for universal, single-mode and multimode power measurement and loss testing capabilities, and the OLS-5 and OLS-6 optical light sources offering high stability and long battery operating times. The testers have a unique 'twin-test' function that allows simultaneous single-mode and multimode tests, reducing test times in LAN and WAN environments and suitable for use in all fibre-optic LAN, WAN, telecommunications or cable environments.
