OLP-37XV2 OPTICAL POWER METER
1 INTRODUCTION
1INTRODUCTION
OLP-37XV2 Optical Power Meter
The OLP-37XV2 is a specialized optical power meter designed
for use cases such as system/network qualification, subscriber
activation, and troubleshooting of passive optical network
(PON).
The instrument performs wavelength selective optical power
measurements suitable for testing G-PON networks, as defined
in ITU-T G.983/4 or IEEE 802.3ah and XGS-PON networks, as
defined in ITU-T G.9807.1 respectively.
An integrated pass/fail analysis feature simplifies standard
conformity and optical budget/margin testing, and provides
unambiguous measurement result presentation.
With PC-based reporting, all test results can be summarized in a
professional, industry-proven report.
Main features
The OLP-37XV2 offers many helpful features that are optimized
to workflows of typical telecom and cable TV operators, and thus
ensure that test times are kept as short as possible.
• Accurate and repeatable wavelength selective power
measurements
• Unambiguous pass/fail result presentation and user definable
pass/fail thresholds
• Data storage for up to 1000 measurements
• USB-C interface for measurement data transfer to a laptop or
PC
• Easy operation and instantly ready to operate
• Versatile power supply options using dry or rechargeable
batteries or via the USB-C interface
• Automatic power-off (can be disabled)
• Color-coded test head cover for easy distinction between APC
and PC connector types
• Display of G-PON and XGS-PON signals simultaneously
• Smart-Reporter PC software for data management and report
generation
