Description
Overview
The EXFO FLS-300-23BL is a dual-wavelength laser light source designed for singlemode fiber optic testing and maintenance. Operating at the standard telecommunications wavelengths of 1310 and 1550 nm, it is widely used for testing passive optical networks and fiber-to-the-home systems. The unit features automatic wavelength recognition that allows compatible equipment to automatically apply the correct calibration parameters, reducing communication requirements between technicians.
Key Features
- Dual singlemode wavelengths (1310 and 1550 nm)
- Automatic wavelength recognition with encrypted digital protocol
- 120-hour battery autonomy in Auto mode
- Highest output power in the industry for its class
- Power stability of ±0.10 dB over 8 hours
- Tone generation at 270 Hz, 1 kHz, and 2 kHz
- Three-year warranty with recommended calibration interval
- Multiple connector options available (FC, ST, SC, LC, E-2000, DIN 47256)
Applications
- Passive Optical Network (PON) testing at 1310 and 1550 nm wavelengths
- Singlemode fiber optic system commissioning and maintenance
- Field testing and troubleshooting of telecommunications networks
- Fiber-to-the-Home (FTTH) deployment verification
Specifications
| An FTTx Test Solution | This product is part of EXFO's series of FTTx optical test products. It allows for the testing of passive optical networks (PONs) at the three main wavelengths (1310, 1490 and 1550 nm) used in fiber-to-the-home (FTTH) and fiber-to-the-premises (FTTP) networks and complies with the ITU-T G.983 and G.984 Recommendation series and the IEEE 802.3ah standard. |
| Auto-Wavelength Recognition | The FLS-300 Light Source can transmit with a wavelength-identification digital encrypted protocol, so that any compatible unit—the FPM-300 Power Meter and the FOT-300 Optical Loss Test Set—can automatically use the proper calibration parameters. This feature reduces the need for communication between the two technicians and decreases the potential for error. |
| Distant Referencing | Signal encrypting can also give the receiving end information on the power to be used as reference, helping ensure efficient referencing, even when the two units are far apart. |
