OPM, InGaAs Detector, -75dBm to +3dBm   Print Friendly

575L

Description:

Insertion Loss and Link Loss Testing
The 575L benchtop optical power meter is a versatile instrument designed to meet the needs of customers conducting fiber optic insertion loss tests and measurements in manufacturing or laboratory settings.  With a measurement range from +3 to -75dBm, and 780nm, 850nm, 1300nm, and 1550nm calibration wavelengths, the 575L is suitable for both singlemode and multimode optical fibers when used with an appropriate LED or laser source.

The 575L prints customized labels containing measurement, date, and time information when connected to a parallel or serial printer. Up to seven different label formats can be stored in non-volatile memory for later use.  A built-in serial port allows the 575L to be controlled remotely from a computer, enabling the automation of complex or repetitive measurements. LabView and LabWindows drivers for the instrument are available.

Features:

  • +3 to -75dBm measurement range
  • Logarithmic dB/dBm and linear Watt units
  • 1mm indium-gallium-arsenide (InGaAs) photodetector
  • 780nm, 850nm, 1300nm, and 1550nm N.I.S.T. traceable calibration
    wavelengths
  • High resolution—0.01dB/dBm; 0.001mW/µW/nW
  • Prints customized labels with power reading, time, and date on a
    parallel or serial printer
  • Remote control via RS-232 interface
  • BNC analog output interface for convenient external monitoring
  • I2C interface allows up to 16 optical power meters to be connected
    and controlled from a designated “reference unit”
  • Snap-On Connector (SOC) interface adapts to all industry standard
    fiber optic connectors and other less common types
  • Operates on 100 to 250VAC, 50 to 60Hz input power
