Models FO600 and FO610 Power Meters

Extech's fibre optic power meters, Models FO600 and FO610, measure over a wide 75 dB dynamic range with ±0.15 dB accuracy and 0.01 dB resolution.

The standard power model, FO600, measures from +5 to -70 dBm. The high power model, F610, measures from +25 to -50 dBm, making it suitable for direct measurements of laser output power.

An interface with an alphanumeric membrane keypad permits the input of test parameters including site name, date, fibre type, fibre length, and connectors and splices. The internal memory stores up to 1000 labelled data records for up to four sites. Stored information can be viewed selectively on a backlit LCD with user prompts and options to re-measure, print or delete.

The built-in calculator determines the maximum allowable optical loss and provides pass/fail certification.

The RS-232 interface and Windows compatible software allow professional certification reports to be produced which compare readings to cabling industry standards.

Models FO600 and FO610 with 2.5 mm universal fibre adapter accept ST, SC, FC, DIN and E2000 fibre connector types.
