How to test a fiber patch cable using hand held optical power meter?

Hand held optical power In supply at Fosco. Order it right here:

We are going utilize the 1550nm light resource. The light resource has a FC adapter user interface.

It reveals the power dimension in dBm on the 2nd row, and nano Watt on the 3rd row.

Allow’s transform it on. We can push the “Light” switch to activate the LED backlighting to see the screen display screen much better.

It is revealing as adverse 5.94 dBm. We are goging to establish this light as a recommendation worth at 0 dB. Change to dB setting, and push the Zero switch, which establishes the existing power degree as 0 dB recommendation degree.

In this video clip, we are presenting one mobile hand held optical power meter.

Hand Held Power Meter – 0.01dB Resolution, Calibrated at 850/980/1300/1310/1490/1550/1625nm

The power meter additionally has a FC adapter user interface, yet it is interchangable, we will certainly reveal you exactly how to transform it soon.

The power meter has a stand, that makes desktop computer screening a lot easier. This power meter has a recharable Lithium battery, which offers 48 hours of continual dealing with a solitary cost.

This is an extremely sturdy layout, lightweight, just half an extra pound, with rubber all over. Really hassle-free to utilize at a reduced price.

Right here is a hand held solitary setting laser light resource. Currently it is releasing light at 1310nm solitary setting at constant continual setting.

Allow’s make use of a laser light resource to check a fiber jumper wire.

Allow’s see to it the cable television is not under any type of tension. Currently the power meter checks out as adverse 0.1 dB insertion loss.

It likewise has an auto-shutoff attribute. We can push the “Auto Off” switch as soon as to activate this function, an “vehicle off” icon is revealed on the display, which suggests the tool will certainly vehicle shutoff after 10 mins.

It features a DC adapter to bill the battery. It likewise has a serial interaction port to interact with your computer system. The serial cord is optional and you require to buy individually.

Currently allow’s plug in our jumper wire under examination. Plug in one side to the source of light adapter, and the various other end to the power meter.

This power meter is pre-calibrated at 7 most typical wavelengths: 850nm, 980nm, 1300nm, 1310nm, 1625nm, 1550nm, and 1490nm.

Currently allow’s turn around the fiber jumper cord port to see to it both ports are great. This moment, it reviews as adverse 0.14 dB which is within resistance.

Right here is a hand held solitary setting laser light resource. Currently it is discharging light at 1310nm solitary setting at constant continual setting. The light resource has a FC adapter user interface. We are goging to establish this light resource as a recommendation worth at 0 dB. Switch over to dB setting, and push the Zero switch, and that establishes the present power degree as 0 dB recommendation degree.

Connect the various other end of the spot cable television to the power meter.

Currently allow’s recommendation the light. Allow’s make certain we are switching over the power meter to 1550nm to match the light resource.

The power meter has an interchangable adapter, we can take it out, and adjustment to SC/APC adapter. We additionally have LC adapter to determine LC spot cable televisions.
