The WaveTester VFL is a high accuracy, high resolution, microprocessor controlled, optical power meter. It has a 65dB dynamic range, and is NIST traceable at 850, 1300, 1310, 1490, and 1550nm, making it ideal for both singlemode and multimode fiber testing, including Fiber To The Home (FTTH) PON networks. It has an attractive handheld case with a backlit, graphic, liquid crystal display, and 4-key keypad for easy operation. It is offered with a 2.5mm/1.25mm universal fiber connector, will operate for over 250 hours on its re-chargeable Lithium Polymer battery, and has built-in auto shutdown. The WaveTester VFL will store reference values for each wavelength to be used for optical loss measurements, and can store up to 200 measured data points. Stored data can be downloaded to free OWL Reporter software to produce formatted certification reports. Also, the WaveTester VFL contains a precision-coupled visual fault locator optimized for fiber optics. Its high-intensity red laser allows for fiber identification up to 1.5 kilometers away. It can also be used to check for faults within a few feet of its launch point. When the bright red light encounters a fault, the light is deflected into the jacket, producing a red glow at the point of the fault.
