1-2 OLP-5, OLP-6, OLP-8
The clearly arranged membrane keypad enables
reliable operation of the microprocessor-
controlled device even under tough conditions in
the field.
When powered from two standard batteries (AA)
or rechargeable NiCd cells, the device has a
typical operating life of 130 hours (40 hours with
NiCds).
TWINtest
Using a special mode known as “TWINtest”,
attenuation measurements are possible at two
wavelengths simultaneously. The OLS-5 and
OLS-15 sources support this mode.
1.1.2 Differences between the
devices
All of the power meters are calibrated at 850 nm,
1300 nm (or 1310 nm) and 1550 nm. The OLP-5
has an additional calibrated wavelength of
820 nm, which makes it ideal for datacom
applications. The OLP-6 has additional calibrated
wavelengths of 780 nm and 1310 nm. With its
wider measurement range from -65 to + 10 dBm,
the OLP-6 can also be used in telecom
applications. The OLP-8 is ideal for CATV
measurements with its input power level range of
-50 dBm to +23 dBm (the typical range in CATV
systems).
