AUTOMATED TESTING = ERROR-FREE TESTING
When used in combination with an EXFO light sourcea in auto-switching mode, the power meter automatically recognizes the wavelength in use and switches to the proper calibration parameter. At the press of a button, you can store results for all wavelengths at once.
FIBER TRACING
When it comes to fiber tracing, the Optical Power Expert can detect four different tones emitted from a sourcea: 270 Hz, 330 Hz, 1 kHz and 2 kHz.
The PRO configuration includes a visual fault locator that emits light in three different modes (continuous, slow blink and fast blink)
to trace fibers and identify breaks and macrobends.
LOW COST OF OWNERSHIP
Designed for extended use in the field, the Optical Power Expert delivers best-in-class optical performances day in, day out. EXFO’s
track-record of robustness, backed with IP54 design for water and dust protection, makes this device extremely reliable and a
long-lasting investment.
