Power Meter Active Fiber Optics

Power meter: FPM-302 

The EXFO FPM-302-FOA-54 Fiber optic Power Meter SC is a handheld optical power meter with an SC connector configuration that that can be used to examine a variety of electrical and fiber optic networks. It integrates the FLS-300 Light Source and FOT-300 Optical Loss Test Set to increase its versatility and breadth in troubleshooting and evaluating installations. These units can be used to transmit a wavelength-identification digital encrypted protocol which allows the FPM-302 to use the proper calibration parameters, decreasing error and making communications simpler.

The FPM-302 line is capable of testing PONs at the 1310, 1490, and 1550 nm wavelengths with a power range of 10 to -60 dBm (uncertainty of ±5%) and a resolution of 0.01 dB. This device is also capable of performing automatic offset nulling, automatic wavelength recognition, tone detection at a 270Hz level, and has a refresh rate of 3Hz. The FPM-302 offers a total of ten calibrated wavelengths with the associated reference values and has power autonomy measured at over 300 hours.
