Fiber OWL 4 - Optical Power Meter

O.W.L.

NB: Images are indicative only

The Fiber OWL 4 is a high accuracy, high resolution advanced optical power meter with automatic wavelength detection and switching. This unique feature removes the need for user intervention when testing at multiple wavelengths when using the WaveSource, auto switching sources. Its 75dB dynamic range makes the unit ideal for both multi and single mode testing. This unit's design features a large backlit graphic LCD display and 18 key keypad for easy data entry.

The universal adaptor accepts ST, SC and LC connectors.

Fiber OWL 4 includes a built in loss wizard providing an easy method of calculating the allowable loss of each fibre run. The meter can store a variety of data per installed fibre for up to eight sites, including information such as site name, fibre and connector type, in addition up to 1000 measured data points can be stored. This stored information can then be selectively viewed, edited, printed or deleted. Printing can be performed directly from the unit?s serial port, imported to a spreadsheet or downloaded using the included OWL Reporter software to product formatted certification reports.

Fiber OWL 4 is available with optional inbuilt optical length tester.
