OptoTest Corporation introduces the new OP940 Insertion Loss and Return Loss instrument as the next generation of the popular IL / RL technology focused on improving the customer experience. This new instrument boasts a larger color display with multiple layers of functionality built in such as On-Screen Context Help, Scan Mode, Programmable Color Coded Pass / Fail Results, and APC Return Loss Reference for the most accurate Return Loss Measurements in the industry.
While retaining many of the features of the original IL/RL instrumentation, this generation of equipment provides more control of the settings and allows the user to measure RL results at two positions simultaneously using the front panel controls. The user interface has been reimagined to be more intuitive, easier than ever to use, and to make full use of the new color LCD front panel display.
Key features of OP940:
IL and RL Measurement- fully automated, concurrent dual wavelength IL and RL;
- display IL and RL simultaneously;
- front panel optical reflectance trace;
- set RL reference position and value;
- measures RL at multiple connection points through front panel;
- programmable pass/fail for multiple test criteria;
- expandable functionality;
- on screen help;
- configurable timer settings, such as Dwell Times;
- user accessible source connector;
- color display;
- easy to use
- “State of the Art” fiber optic power meter;
- various detector options for measuring simplex to multifiber connectors;
- automated dual wavelength insertion loss measurement;
- no mandrel wrap nor matching gel;
