Easy-To-Use Handheld Optical Light Source Introduced

GAO Fiber Optics has released its easy – to – use handheld optical light source intended for optical fiber networks. This optical light source is ideal for the maintenance of telecommunications and CATV systems. This handheld optical light source, model 5202, features compact size, ease of use, highly stable output power and wavelength. It provides 1 to 4 output wavelengths to meet specific requirements including 650nm red source, 1310/1550nm wavelengths for single mode fiber and 850/1300nm wavelengths for multimode fiber. Other wavelengths are available to meet specific needs. The compact optical light source, equipped with a backlight LCD display, provides a clear display of test results. Together with GAO's 5303 optical power meter, the pair acts as a perfect solution for the fiber optic network characterization. Ten minutes auto-off function allows for battery life conservation.
