* Combines a power meter and a light source, allowing selection of different wavelengths.
* Memory capacity of 1000 data items; allows data transfer to a PC via USB connection.
* Ideal for network link qualification: pass/fail thresholds and LED indicator.
* Error-free testing: automatic wavelength switching and no override required.
* Optional Visual Fault Locator (VFL) for quick and easy troubleshooting (standard).
* Low cost of ownership: three-year warranty and recommended calibration interval.
* Comprehensive reporting software.
Part of EXFO's 600 Series of handheld tools, which includes the FPM-600 Power Meter and FLS-600 Light Source, the FOT-600 Optical Loss Tester is the ideal tool for network link qualification. Designed for superior ease of use, the FOT-600 features a pass/fail LED indicator and allows you to set your own thresholds for absolute or relative loss measurements.
With a memory capacity of 1000 data items and integrated reporting software, the FOT-600 simplifies data management and enables data transfer to a PC via USB connection. Create and customize a comprehensive test report, including link certification with pass/fail information.
Ready for FTTx applications, the FOT-600 allows testing of passive optical networks (PONs) at 1310, 1490, and 1550 nm—the three wavelengths recommended by ITU-Y (G.983.3) for these environments.
The features are complemented by a new professional reporting software tool with detailed documentation and numerous useful functions.
Like all EXFO handheld instruments, the FOT-600 has been developed for robustness and versatility, designed to withstand the harshest testing conditions. It features a backlit keypad/LCD for easy operation in low-light environments and a rechargeable battery.
The FOT-600, which comes with a three-year warranty, measures 190 x 100 x 62 mm, weighs 480 grams, and operates in a temperature range of -10 to +50 °C.
