Portable Fibre Optic Instruments

C880 QUAD Certification Test Kit ^NEW!

With two C840 QUAD Certification Testers, the Noyes C880 QUAD Certification Test Kit tests and troubleshoots both multi-mode and single mode fibre links. Certification reports can be produced using the PC software provided. The testers may be used alone as power meters, light sources or visual fault locators.

Turbotest 500B Optical Loss & Return Loss Tester

The TURBOTEST 500B Series offers the latest technology in a single fiber bi-directional loss and return loss testing. The T500B is a handheld fiber optic test and measurement instrument. It performs Optical Power, Optical Return Loss, and Optical Loss measurements. Five compact models are available, including the three wavelength (1310/1550/1625) T506B and (1310/1550/1490) T506B-FTTH. An optional dedicated digital talk option is available for full time/full duplex communication between test operators while testing other fibers in a bundle.

The T500B can store up to 1000 records (40 files) in any combination of its four operating modes and if any configuration other than TRIPLE wavelength is selected. If the configuration is TRIPLE wavelength, the T500B can store up to 500 records (40 files). Stored test results can be transferred to a PC for a complete report generation.

Powered by an internal rechargeable Lithium-lon battery, the T500B comes with protective rubber boots, PC software and manual, AC adapter/charger, RS-232 serial cable, APC/UPC reference cable, adapter cap, mandrel, screwdriver, hex screwdriver, warranty registration card, user’s guide, and carry case.

Handheld Network Link Tester (HNLT)

The multi-functional j2waves Handheld Network Link Tester (HNLT) is a rugged, portable instrument that offers the performance and durability required in a field tool. Users can count on its reliability when installing, maintaining and troubleshooting various links in optical networks. This sophisticated device incorporates a Variable Optical Attenuator (VOA), an Input Power Meter, and an Output Power Controller – perfect tools for performing a comprehensive series of on-site tests. Standard applications of the Handheld Network Link Tester include: transceiver optical performance testing, transmission characteristic tests, system accuracy testing, and auto levelling control.

Handheld Polarimeter (HPOM)

The j2waves Handheld Polarimeter (HPOM) has been designed to incorporate many complex features including log / linear display modes, auto-ranging wavelength detection, user-defined calibration options, and reference measurements. The SOP is measured and displayed simultaneously with Poincare Sphere on a 3.5” TFT color screen. When combined with a touch screen and userfriendly GUI, the Handheld Polarimeter is an easy-to-use, handheld tool that enables technicians to perform varied and complex polarization analyses – without the need for heavy or bulky equipment

Handheld Wavelength/Power Meter (HWPM)

The j2waves Handheld Wavelength and Power Meter (HWPM) measures both wavelength and optical power of optical signals. It is an economical, accurate, easy-to-use handheld unit. The HWPM is suitable for testing single-mode optical systems, and also ideal for FTTx, WDM PON tests. The unit is designed to operate in the rough fibre cable installation and maintenance environments.

In addition to precise measurement of optical wavelengths and power, the HWPM is also loaded with complex features such as log/linear display modes, auto-ranging wavelength detection, user-defined calibration and reference measurement. When combined with a touch screen and user-friendly GUI, the Handheld Wavelength and Power Meter is an easy-to-use, handheld tool that enables technicians to perform varied and complex wavelength and power analysis – without the need for heavy or bulky equipment.

Handheld Polarisation Synthesiser (HPOS)

The j2waves Handheld Polarization Synthesizer (HPOS) is a handheld instrument that generates and sustains any state of polarisation (SOP), regardless of the input SOP. This instrument can be used as an SOP generator, polarisation controller, or polarisation tracker. Based on Lightwaves2020’s innovative and proprietary research of liquid crystal cells and polarisation, the Handheld Polarization Synthesizer is able to consistently and reliably generate, control, and track SOP, is able to operate independently from the input SOP and is insensitive to input fluctuation.

The j2waves HPOS provides many useful, complex features, such as log/linear display modes, auto-ranging wavelength detection, user-defined calibration and reference measurements. The SOP measurement and Poincaré Sphere are simultaneously displayed on a 3.5” TFT colour screen. Combined with a touch screen and user-friendly interface, the HPOS is an easy to use handheld tool enabling technicians to perform various polarisation tasks such as measurement, control, generation, tracking and management – without need for heavy or bulky equipment.
