Quad MM SM Two-Way Loss Test Set | Kingfisher International

Overview

A Quad Two-Way Optical Loss Test set (OLTS) that's perfect for medium to ultra high fiber count loss testing applications on both multimode and single mode fiber at 850 / 1330nm & 1310/1550 nm. A pair of these MM & SM fiber optic certification testers set new standards of productivity, accuracy and ease of use.

Each fiber needs just one test hook-up and one key press for a complete bidirectional loss test, and the same test method is used for both multimode and single mode fiber, eliminating administration, training and test errors. Testing is accurate and can take only 5 seconds, direct onto flexible standards-compliant Tier 1 certification reports.

A pair of instruments both display bi-directional insertion loss, in real time, with no need to specify master/slave instruments. A single instrument can also be used as a stand-alone light source & power meter, or tone generator / detector.

Smart communication makes sure you always get a full, complete, and consistent test result.

Real-time reporting software

Excel-based instrument connectivity for comprehensive reporting (against standards) and real-time data logging.

Metal-free connectors

To avoid metal dust fragments damaging your tester and fiber-ends, we use high-end metal-free connectors.
