Provider of electric test devices, Megger has released a new series of high performance, single mode optical power meters that are utilized for optical loss testing of optical fiber cables.
The MPM2000 and MPM2000H optical power meters have a robust waterproof housing and are pre-calibrated for power levels with 1mW reference for 1550, 1310, 1300, and 850nm wavelengths.
The MPM2000H optical power meters are suitable for CATV and other transmission applications whereas the MPM2000 power meters are ideal for testing single mode links such as SDH and SONET. The power meters can also be utilized in relative power mode, thereby enabling them to be utilized on multi-mode cables.
The MPM2000 power meters have an accuracy of ±5% and a dynamic range from +10 to -70dBm. The MPM2000H power meters also feature the same accuracy level and incorporate a dynamic range between +20dBm and -60dBm. They have an automatic power down feature and enable measurement modes in dBm and dBrel. The power meters also deliver good battery life and a power down override feature during dBrel measurements. They can also be used to manufacture custom equipment by using 12 additional laser frequencies that are programmed at the factory.
