Fiber OWL 7V Basic Certification Test Kit with VFL and Cable Length Test Port
The Optical Wavelength Labs KF7Vxxx Fiber OWL 7V Basic Certification Test Kit contains the tools necessary for certifying fiber optic links against a myriad of popular cabling standards in multimode networks, commonly referred to in the industry as Tier 1 certification.
The Fiber OWL 7V (p/n: F7V) optical power meter is multimode and singlemode ready and contains a user-friendly Fiber Link Wizard with color diagrams to guide the setup process, calculate the link budget, and set the optical reference. Up to 10,000 fiber runs may be stored in internal memory, and can be downloaded to a PC for report generation with OWLView software.
The universal detector port on the F7V comes with 2 adapter caps, one for 2.5mm connectors such as SC, ST, and FC, and the other for 1.25mm connectors such as LC. The length testing port and visual fault locator port are LC.
The included Dual OWL Pro Fiber Optic Light Source is designed for accurate testing and certification of fiber networks. The light source outputs are temperature-stabilized for accurate measurements.
