In-Line Optical Power Monitor
The M500 is a low cost and compact instrument for measuring the power of a signal being transmitted through an optical fiber. Unlike conventional power meters, this power monitor can be installed in live systems for real-time, continuous power measurement, without compromising system performance.
It features a digital readout of the instantaneous power of a transmitted signal. The display can be toggled between wavelengths, as well as absolute and relative power readings.
The device includes a USB port for interfacing with power monitoring software. The optical interface is FC/APC connectors.
