SmartClass Fiber MPOLx - MPO Optical Loss Test Sets
First Dedicated Tier 1 (Basic) MPO Certification Solution
The MPOLx provides a source and power meter that integrate essential test capabilities together to ensure a fast and reliable workflow when testing and certifying network links with native MPO connectivity.
With the MPOLx, field technicians can perform all the necessary test requirements for Tier 1 (Basic) certification in a single solution:
- Measure MPO length
- Measure optical loss
- Check polarity
- Inspect fiber end faces
- Generate certification reports
Drive best test practices by integrating essential functions together with the MPOLx and help technicians finish jobs faster by optimizing their workflow.
Highlights
The MPOLx gives technicians the ability to achieve a completely new level of productivity for testing and certification. Like all our solutions for Tier 1 (Basic) fiber certification, identical local and remote units are provided to enable full visibility and control by performing tests from both the Light Source and Power Meter. All devices feature a 3.5" color touch screen and integrated inspection for both bulkhead and trunk connectors. The MPOLx allows a single technician to inspect MPO end faces and perform tests from either end of the connection, reducing walking back and forth between the two units.
The MPOLx ensures fast workflows by delivering comprehensive test results in less than 6 seconds for all 12 fibers of the connector providing color coded pass/fail test results, test limit, fiber length, test wavelengths, loss values, margins, and polarity results for each fiber.
Benefits
- Fast and reliable test and certification workflow
- Full visibility and control at both the source and power meter
- Complete multi-fiber push on end face inspection and analysis at both ends. Learn more
- Integrates with FiberChekPRO
