M100A Optical Power Meter

Features:

4 digit, .01dB Display Readout
Microprocessor Controlled
90 dB of Measurement Range
dB & dBm Measurement Modes
Non-Volatile Storage of References and Mode Conditions

The M100A Optical Power Meter is the only low cost, extended range, fiber optic power meter available, capable of measuring the high power transmitters common to CATV head ends, without sacrificing the low measurement capability required for testing the longest telecomm cables or other applications requiring low level measurement capability. The M100A specified measurement range extends from +25dBm to -65dBm at 1310nm. Standard features include 4 digit, .01dB resolution display readout, Store Reference feature with unique references for each wavelength, nonvolatile storage of reference values and setup conditions, extended battery life, low battery detection, Auto shutoff/ power save mode, temperature compensated circuitry, .25 dB accuracy, 3 factory calibrated wavelengths, optional analog output port, a versatile universal 2.5mm detector port(also available with threaded interface and FC adapter caps) that's compatible with FC, ST, SC, DIN, and E2000 connectors without costly replacement adaptor caps, and a rugged carry case, Additionally, the M100 family of fiber optic power meters are the only power meters to offer a User Definable and calibratable wavelength position which allows the user the capability to calibrate the meter at a fourth wavelength with a minimal amount of equipment with just a few key strokes. With its rich feature set, the M100A Optical Power Meter is the ideal meter for virtually all fiber optic testing application, whether its the testing of a patchcord, a 1 X 32 splitter, or a short LAN cable, to the testing of a CATV network using the transmitter as the test source, or the testing of the longest telecomm link.
