OPM-200 Digital Directional Inline Optical Power Monitor/Meter

Product information "OPM-200 Digital Directional Inline Optical Power Monitor/Meter"

1250 to 1620 nm; Tap Ratio 1%; Return Loss 70 dB; Dynamic Range -32-+20 dBm; Directivity 35 dB; Fiber Type SM, PM; Connector FC/UPC

As part of its series of inline optical power monitors and tap couplers, OZ Optics offers the OPM-200, a digital inline optical power monitor. Based on a groundbreaking, patented fabrication process, these all-fiber taps and monitors provide a way to easily measure the average signal intensity through an optical fiber via tapped light channeled into a built-in photodiode, without interrupting the traffic. The photodiode produces a signal proportional to the optical power traveling through the fiber with high directivity.

The OPM-200 power monitor integrates a novel inline optical tap with a low-noise InGaAs detector in combination with a high dynamic range logarithmic amplifier. The built-in microcontroller processes and displays the power transmitted through the selected fiber channel on an LCD display. The optical tap modules and display units are independently calibrated, so any display unit can be plugged into any tap module, and the measured power will be automatically calibrated. A low-voltage circuitry design ensures a long lifetime for the built-in battery. The detector module can be calibrated for either a single wavelength or for a broad wavelength range. Optional, RS-232 and analog outputs are also available.

The OPM-200 inline power monitor is ideal for network monitoring, out of specification alarms, and/or DWDM systems for real time monitoring and feedback. OZ Optics’ inline taps are highly directional and ideal for monitoring traffic traveling in one direction only. They may also be used for measuring return losses instead of transmitted power. In the same product family, OZ Optics now provides OEM single channel optical power monitors and can offer multi-channel power monitors for DWDM system integration on demand.

BM Backreflection Meters
Single and Dual Source; 633-1625 nm; Reflectance Dynamic Range -1--70 dB; Fiber Type SM, MM; 8° Angled NTT-FC/APC Receptacle OZ Optics’ BM series of backreflection meters measure the total accumulated optical return loss that is reflected back through a device or fiber under test. The measured reflections are caused by Rayleigh scattering, sudden changes in the refractive index within the device under test (DUT), or from connector ends. BM series meters are available as portable handheld devices (BM-100 and BM-200) or in a benchtop form factor (BM-1000 and BM-2000). The BM series backreflection meters are configured with an FC/APC connector on the output port, to minimize unwanted reflections. The meters have either one or two built-in laser diodes (plus a choice of SLEDs or LEDs for benchtop models) for return loss measurement at specific wavelengths. An optional detector can be added to the unit for insertion loss measurements. Reference patchcords for calibration are available. BM series meters cover a wide range of available wavelengths, thus providing measurement  capabilities for non-telecom applications as well as telecom. BM-100/200 portable meters' wavelengths range from 8050 nm to 1625 nm, while the BM-1000/2000 benchtop meters are offered with special wavelengths, ranging from 633 nm to 1625 nm. The BM-1000/2000 benchtop backreflection meters feature a colour touchscreen display with a simple graphical user interface. The units come with a built-in memory that allows the user to store measured DUT test results. The BM series backreflection meters can be operated remotely via the built-in USB interface. A universal AC/DC power supply is included with all units. Reference patch cords for calibration are available. Adapter patch cords are also available, to allow the meter to be used with devices having different connectors.

The ultra-sensitive power meter combined with stabilized light sources enable up to a 70 dB measurement range. The angled single-mode test port (APC) guarantees highly accurate return loss measurements without requiring external termination for up to 50 dB return loss measurements. The ORL-85/85P series is compatible with the P5000i digital analysis microscope for checking fiber end-face quality and getting pass/fail acceptance results at the push of a button. The ORL-85P features an integrated patch-cord microscope (PCM) for added value and improved workflow efficiency. Threshold settings for pass/fail indications and the intuitive touch screen user interface transforms users into instant fiber experts without the need for special training. Automatic functions, such as auto-λ and real-time multi-λ functionalities avoid handling errors and speed up test time significantly. The ORL-85/85P series are fully compatible with other members of the SmartClass Fiber family (OLS, OLP, and OLT) with these automatic functions. Users can easily save test results (power, return loss, and fiber inspection) with real-time stamp to generate certification reports.
