Overview

An Optical Loss Test Set used to test power, loss, continuity and faults on single mode fiber with an APC connector at 1310 / 1550 / 1625 nm. In a small package, it provides a powerful solution to improve test flexibility and productivity.

The 650 nm VFL Visitester feature mixes a VFL in with the test signal during Autotest. In addition to operating as a typical VFL, it gives positive visual identification of a fiber to be connected for loss testing.

  • Easy to use, slim, rugged & versatile
  • Excellent source stability
  • Large clear LCD is sunlight readable & backlit
  • Large memory with Text Tag & time stamp
  • One button memory dump to USB Flash Drive
  • KITS™ reporting software for acquisition and reporting
  • Autotest power meter 1 % accuracy & 25 calibrated λ
  • Traceable calibration reports: power meter & linearity, source λ & stability
  • Interchangeable connectors with dust cap & tilt bail
  • Multi-Fiber ID Test tone generator / detector
  • Long alkaline battery life with micro USB external power / charger
