Overview

This family of Handheld Loss Test Meters are premium instruments used to test power, insertion loss, continuity, and faults on fiber optic systems. In a small package, this is a powerful "optical multimeter" with improved test flexibility and productivity.

They can be used either as stand-alone or as an instrument pair. The Autotest feature provides automated wavelength detection, loss testing, local/remote referencing, and works with KITS software to speed up & simplify single-direction loss testing.

Instrument options are available for testing multimode, single mode, MPO, HCS and POF fiber.
