Overview

The VIAVI SmartClass Fiber OLP-85 and OLP-85P combine pass/fail fiber inspection and optical power measurement (OPM) in one handheld instrument. Both models offer a 100 dB dynamic range and are intended for fiber-optic network power and loss test applications.

The meters keep their accuracy across the full measurement range, so they can be used where very low or very high optical power has to be measured. The measurement wavelength range is 800 to 1700 nm and can be set in 1 nm steps.

The OLP-85P adds an integrated patch cord microscope (PCM). Both models can also do automated pass/fail fiber inspection analysis with the optional P5000i microscope. The instruments run on batteries and have a compact, rugged, weather-proof housing with a 3.5-in color touch screen.

Connectivity and software

Fiber inspection and test results are stored on the instrument with a time stamp. Data transfer and remote control work over USB or Ethernet. When used with VIAVI light sources, the meters support auto-lambda and multi-lambda testing. SmartClass Fiber Software and SmartReporter Software are available for download.
