SimpliFiber Pro (R) O p t i c a l P o w e r M e t e r a n d F i b e r Te s t K i t s SimpliFiber Pro makes testing simple Fluke Networks' SimpliFiber(R) Pro Optical Power Meter incorporates new and innovative features to give technicians a tool that performs and reports test results like no other first-line fiber test tool can. The only way to accurately test and verify the performance of your fiber-optic network is with test equipment designed for the job. The SimpliFiber(R) Pro Optical Power Meter and Fiber Test Kits is a suite of affordable and easy-to-use fiber verification test solutions. Today's high bandwidth premise networks heavily rely on fiber-optic infrastructure. Proper installation and maintenance of fiber cabling is imperative to improve technician productivity and ensure cabling system performance. See how Fluke Networks' suite of innovative installation and test solutions improves technician productivity and ensures cabling system performance. SimpliFiber Pro is an improved fiber test set that simplifies and shortens the front-line testing process by: * reducing the multiple steps and using a simultaneous dual-wavelength testing feature to measure the range of power levels in just half the time * allowing for a non-touch solution to check for a live fiber without having to plug into ports * enabling a network technician to do time-consuming procedures that normally require a team SimpliFiber(R) Pro Optical Power Meter and Fiber Test Kits provide you with all the tools you need to help you verify proper installation and maintain fiber-optic cabling systems. Available in kits or a la carte, these tools are simple and effective and provide you with the capability to measure loss and power levels, locate faults and polarity issues, and inspect connector end-faces. A system approach SimpliFiber Pro is a product suite that allows you to match products and functionality to your needs. SimpliFiber Pro is made up of four unique fiber platforms: the power meter, the multimode source, the singlemode source, and the FindFiberTM Remote ID source. Each platform has uniquely competitive features, bundled in convenient kits, to meet the needs of today's technicians. The optical power meter is included in all kits and is calibrated for accuracy at six different wavelengths (850, 1300, 1310, 1490, 1550, 1625). The meter features the ability to save a reference power level, allowing a direct display of fiber loss. It also has an intuitive four-button panel, a large LCD display screen, and a serial port. The meter's single connector permits simple network connection and straightforward reference power measurement. Interchangeable connector adapters are available in the most popular connector styles. Technical Data SimpliFiber Pro makes fiber-link verification and troubleshooting even simpler. The multimode source is a dual wavelength 850/1300 source and incorporates an 850 nm LED and a 1300 nm LED, perfect for multimode fiber testing. You can add an optional singlemode 1310/1550 source to any kit as your testing needs evolve. These laser sources are ideal for all singlemode fiber testing. All sources are compatible with the SimpliFiber Pro optical power meter. The FindFiberTM Remote ID source is a new platform in the Fluke Networks family. When used with the optical power meter, these remote ID sources allow for quick and easy torTM Mini video microscope or FiberViewerTM microscopes.

Patch Panel User-friendly Although they are effective as separate tools, the SimpliFiber Pro optical power meter and sources are engineered to work together. The automatic wavelength-sensing feature of the meter identifies the source wavelength and sets itself appropriately so you do not SimpliFiber Pro have to. This simplifies multi-wavelength meter tests and saves at each wavelength to prevent costly measurement errors. The compact SimpliFiber Pro optical power meter and sources are durable and rugged. They feature textured, impact-resistant covers and a compact, ergonomic shape for a comfortable and secure grip. Long battery life assures SimpliFiber Pro meter harmful infrared rays.
