FLEXBOX: Power Meter & (Light) Source Feature

Sven Tron 6. Oct 2016

Without additional equipment/devices and expenses our FLEXBOX combines all the commonalities of a physical power meter and optical light source in an intuitive and reliable application, all you need is your FLEXBOX and a transceiver.

Power Meter applications

Transceiver-based testing, you decide which distance or wavelength you want to test
Check and validate power loss during fiber installation and maintenance
End-to-End error diagnostics
Insertion loss testing/measurement of attenuation on fiber optic links
Loss detection for devices without Digital Diagnostic Monitoring (DDM) during setup

Light Source applications

Transceiver-based measurement, you decide which distance or wavelength you want to test
Multi-wavelength testing with a transceiver as light source
Test and maintenance of CWDM / DWDM systems
Point-to-point attenuation measurement with light source
Link-loss characterization
Identify your fiber in a patch panel
Determine loss via correlation of counterpart TX and RX values

What can I see on the chart?

Display of voltage, temperature and bias-current values in combination with time based continuous chart for transmit and receive levels
Record readings for subsequent recall and download as JSON or CSV file
