Tempo OWS201 Optical Wavelength Splitter, 1490nm / 1570nm Outs

Features:

• High accuracy to measure specific channel wavelengths
• Eliminates the need for expensive PON and DWDM power meters
• Low loss
• SC/APC connections
• Low return loss will not disrupt network
• Compact design
• Convenient lanyard to securely hold

The Optical Wavelength Splitter is used to separate the various wavelengths that may be present in GPON, XG PON and NGPON2 networks to measure the optical power at each wavelength independent of other network signals. A standard optical power meter such as the OPM510 or OPM210 can then be used to measure each signal without the need to purchase a costly DWDM OPM. The optical loss of the OWS is typically less than 0.1dB and as a result has marginal influence on the measurements. OWS configurations are possible with up to eight wavelengths are possible and are dependent on individual service provider requirements.

The OWS201 allows the technician to measure 1490nm and 1570nm in overlayed 1G and 10G networks without influence from the adjacent wavelength.
