VIAVI 2287/22 ORL-55, Optical Return Loss Meter, 1310/1490/1550nm, APC

A SMART Future-Proof Optical Return Loss Meter

The ORL-55 is a high performance instrument for field, production and lab use. This instrument can be used in three different modes as a return loss meter, optical power/loss meter and a laser source.

Highlights

• Ensures quick and reliable testing of the return loss of an optical system. High return loss values are essential for ensuring the signal quality especially with CATV & FTTx networks.
• Measures return loss at up to three wavelengths simultaneously in real time using digital signal processing.
• Return loss referencing performed via a single key stroke. Very easy referencing due to ultra stable lasers and special signal processing.
• Can be used as a standalone optical return loss meter, an optical power/loss meter and a laser source.
• USB interface for easy remote control & report generation
• Internal memory for over 1000 results
• New Visual Fault Locator Option
• New Host USB data storage option

Applications

• Designed for fiber optic field use for technicians and Installers/maintenance people within fiber optic networks especially for FTTX, CATV and high bandwidths installations.

Key Features

• Auto-lambda function provides automatic wavelength detection to speed up testing.
• 70% reduction in testing time due to multiple automatic functions.
• Industries first auto-zeroing function for very high accuracy with no manual zeroing needed.
• SMARTEnergy power supply management system.
• SMARTStar graphical user interface for fast and easy operation.
• Quick start function requiring no warm up reduces testing time.
• Robust shock proof instrument with great look and feel.
