The OLS 1 Series of LED light
sources are inexpensive, practical instruments designed for performing
insertion loss measurements on fibre optic links when used with an optical
power meter.
The OLS 1 is easy to operate with only a power switch and a wavelength
select slide switch. The power switch will illuminate when on and flashes to
indicate a low battery condition.
The LED outputs are stabilized to ensure accurate test results. Weighing
only 4.5 ounces, the OLS 1 is compact and convenient for field use. The OLS
1 operates over 80 hours from a typical 9V alkaline battery. An AC adapter
is optional for extended use.
Applications
The OLS 1 Series Optical Light Sources provide a stable known level of light
to accurately perform insertion loss tests with an optical power meter.
Operating at 850nm, the OLS 1-1B can be used for testing Ethernet, Gigabit
Ethernet, Token Ring, and other multimode LAN systems.
Operating at 660nm, the OLS1-1B can test 1000µm fibre and trace fibres with
the visible 660nm output.
The OLS 1-2 (two port) and OLS 1-Dual (single port) operate at 850 and
1300nm for use on Ethernet, Gigabit Ethernet, Token Ring, and FDDI. The
1300nm output can also be used to test short distance (up to 10km)
singlemode fibre links.
The OLS 1 Series is designed to work in conjunction with optical power
meters from Noyes Fibre Systems and can be purchased together as a kit.
Please call for a complete list of sources and meters available.
