Most fiber optic test applications, such as certification or optical loss measurement, also require a separate fiber optic light source.
Optical Wavelength Laboratories Optical Fiber Light Sources OWL WaveSource WS-MDSDst & WS-MDSDsc Quad 850/1330/1310/1550nm
  • OWL WaveSource WS-MDSDst & WS-MDSDsc Quad Optical Fiber Light Sources 850/1300/1310/1550nm

    WaveSource series fiber optic light sources offer the fiber optic professional a wide range of options for their testing needs.  Many different combinations are available: multimode MM only, singlemode SM only, or both multimode MM and singlemode SM.  Our quad-wavelength version (WS-MDSD) provides all four wavelengths (850, 1300, 1310, 1550) in one unit!  Visual Fault Locators (VFL) can also be added to multimode MM only and singlemode SM only versions.  VFLs can be used in both multimode MM and singlemode SM optical fibers.

    All versions of the WaveSource have two transmission modes: Continuous Wave (CW) for accurate temperature-stabilized fiber optic tests; and modulated mode.  Modulated mode provides for an auto-testing function when used with the Fiber OWL 4 or WaveTester optical power meter series.  The modulated signal from the WaveSource causes the WaveTester to switch to the currently selected wavelength, which eliminates much of the guesswork during tests, and saves valuable time.

     

    WaveSource light sources come configured with your choice of SC, ST, or FC connector ports.

    Automatic Wavelength Detection when used with the OWL waveTester and Fiber OWL Optical Fiber Power Meters.
