NOYES OLS2-DUAL Optical Source The OLS2-Dual laser source is a cost-effective, rugged, handheld instrument designed for performing insertion loss measurements on single-mode fiber optic links when used with an optical power meter. When paired with an optical fiber identifier, the OLS2-Dual may be used for fiber identification. The LASER output is stabilized to ensure accurate test results per current TIA/EIA requirements. The OLS2-Dual features 1310 nm and 1550 nm (or 1550 nm and 1625 nm) LASER output from a single output port and is easy to operate. This light source offers 4 modes of operation: Dual wavelengths sending ID, single wavelength sending ID, CW, and modulated Tone. [Active Output], [Tone], [Battery], and [External Power] indicators identify the currently enabled operating mode, battery charge status, and external power presence. The OLS2-Dual output port is equipped with a UCI based removable adapter to allow the output connector to be inspected and cleaned. In addition to being powered by two AA alkaline batteries, the OLS2-Dual can be powered by optional AC adapter and/or rechargeable NiMH battery pack. The OLS2-Dual is fully N.I.S.T. traceable.
Features • Rugged, handheld, lightweight • Dual wavelengths from a single port • Certify single-mode links per TIA/EIA standards • Dual Wave ID, single Wave ID, CW, and modulated Tone • 270 Hz, 330 Hz, 1 kHz, and 2 kHz supported Tone (2 kHz default) • AA alkaline, optional rechargeable NiMH battery pack or AC adapter • Long battery life • Low battery indicator • Adjustable output • Cost-effective, easy to use • N.I.S.T. Traceable
Applications • The OLS2-Dual may be substituted for terminal equipment in the central office or head end to provide a stable output for loss measurements. • For single-mode applications, such as Telecom or CATV, the OLS2-Dual may be coupled with an optical power meter as a test kit to perform optical loss tests at 1310 and 1550 nm. • In the modulation Tone mode, the OLS2-Dual generates a Tone signal into the fiber. This signal is detected by the OFI-200, optical fiber identifier, to isolate specific fibers in a bundle prior to splicing or rerouting.
