OptoTest OP940-SW

The multichannel OP940 is an internally switched insertion loss (IL) and return loss (RL) meter designed for testing ribbon cables and multi-pin terminations.

Multichannel IL and RL measurement
Precise testing of ribbon and multi-pin cables
Fast and accurate test setup
Expandable from 4 to 24 channels
The most accurate RL measurement in the industry

A multichannel meter for insertion loss and return loss measurements. The meter is designed for measuring ribbon and multi-pin cables. It has a color LCD screen. It is capable of testing fiber optic cables quickly and precisely. It can include from 4 to 24 channels.

Simplified test setup
The OP940 measures quickly and accurately, without the need to wrap mandrels or apply index-matching gel.

The most accurate RL measurement
By using a wide dynamic range (-10dB to -80dB) for RL measurements, the multichannel OP940 is able to adjust the attenuation in the reference configuration, delivering the most accurate return loss results in the industry.

Easy maintenance and minimal downtime
To minimize downtime on large production lines due to optical end-face damage, the removable front panel provides access to the source connector, allowing the connector to be re-polished if it becomes damaged.

Customizability
The multichannel OP940 can be built with anywhere from 4 to 24 channels. The system is available with Single Mode, Multimode, and FTTX wavelengths, as well as various core sizes and detector options.
