Light Source

Multi-functional Fiber Optic Light Source

The Light Source is a handy tool and instrument to provide you several different wavelengths to test the fiber equipment in the optical network and FTTx construction. The Light Source is ideal for field or laboratory testing of optical communication system at 850 nm / 1300 nm for datacom testing, 1310 nm / 1550 nm / CWDM 1270 nm ~ 1610 nm (20 nm spans) for all WDM testing , as well as 1490 nm for FTTx testing by changing the interchangeable SFP module.
The Light Source features zero warm up, superb productivity and is easy to use with pocket-size and rugged and handy design.

Using a suitable patch cord, the Light Source can be used for all the most widespread fiber interfaces such as LC / ST / SC / FC connector. It is suitable to test both Singlemode and Multimode cables.

Internally there is also a specifically designed power circuit included; the APC (Auto Power Control) circuit provides steady power which avoids unstable laser output when the battery is low.

The LD output signal can be switched to Continuous Wave or Pulse Mode 270 Hz / 2 KHz Modulated Mode to simulate signal transmission. There is a dust proof cap which will prevent dust from getting into the inside of the LD connector. The cap also helps evade incidental exposure of the laser directly into your eyes.
