The sender is for outside plant and single-mode fiber. The
connector output can be adapted to any cable plant with hybrid
adapters or hybrid cables. This unit is easy to operate with a
wavelength/power switch, which selects optical wavelengths or
disables the unit. There is also a switch which select between
either the CW or 2 kHz output for the transmitting wavelength.
The CW or 2Khz tone is for sending a tone down the fiber it is
useful if the end user has a tone identifier that ca be clipped
onto to the fiber to identify and individual fiber. The
light source is designed for performing insertion loss
measurements on fiber optic links when used with an optical
power meter. Whether testing outside plant or premise an optical
source is the perfect tool when combined with an optical power
meter. The output is stabilized to ensure accurate test results
per current TIA/EIA requirements. The wavelengths are
individually adjustable with a mechanical screw to have a
variable attenuator or to reduce the output power. This make it
able to save battery power when high optical output power is not
necessary, or to turn up the power to test long runs. The sender
is delivered in a protective rubber boot. |
