FTBx-700 and MAX-700 series OTDR in-line Optical Power Meters (OPM)

The in-line Optical Power Meter (OPM) is a feature included in the optical configuration of some OTDR instruments that allows absolute power measurements of various wavelengths to be performed during live acquisitions.

[In-line] Optical Power Meter (OPM)

OPM provides in-line optical power measurements at the following Broadband / ITU-T G.694 CWDM, ITU-T G.98** FTTx / PON and ITU-T L.41 Maintenance wavelengths:

Note: For full details of wavelengths associated with specific optical configurations, always consult the appropriate instrument Specification Sheet.

[In-line] Optical Power Meter 2 (OPM2)

OPM2 is an enhancement of OPM and provides in-line optical power measurements separated into the following two modes:

FTTx/PON

Both single- and dual-band power measurements at wavelengths commonly used during service activation and/or fault investigation of various ITU-T G.98** Passive Optical Network (PON) configurations, along with an additional 'Detect PON' option for categorizing individual PON service wavelengths:

Note: For full details of wavelengths associated with specific optical configurations, always consult the appropriate instrument Specification Sheet.

Broadband

Single-band power measurements at the following Broadband / ITU-T G.694 CWDM, ITU-T G.98** FTTx / PON and ITU-T L.41 Maintenance subsets for single wavelength systems:

Note: For full details of wavelengths associated with specific optical configurations, always consult the appropriate instrument Specification Sheet.
