  • MPM-220

Multi-Port
Optical Power Meter

The perfect tool for very fast simultaneous measurement of multi-port optical devices

  • High Speed Measurement
    (Up to 1 million logging sampling points per port)
  • Up to 20-Channels Measurement
  • Power Meter Module (MPM-211 / -212 / -215 / -217)
  • Current Meter Module (MPM-213)
MPM 220

Description

The MPM-220 is a new multi-port optical power meter that is perfect for measuring the optical characteristics of multi-port optical devices. The MPM-220 can simultaneously measure up to 20 ports (4 ports per MPM-211/-215/-217 modules) very fast with high resolution. It features high accuracy, high linearity, and extremely low polarization-dependent sensitivity with power levels from -80 to +10 dBm (-70 to +5 dBm @MPM-215) over a wavelength range of 1250-1680 nm. GPIB and Ethernet interfaces provide a convenient automated measurement solution. The MPM-220 is ideal for IL and PDL measurement of multi-port optical components including Dense Wavelength Division Multiplexing (DWDM), AWG, Wavelength Selective Switches (WSS) and more. When combined with a santec TSL-Series laser equipped with a power monitor output, the MPM-220 allows the user to complete high precision IL measurements while referencing in real-time. Furthermore, the MPM-220 improves the IL repeatability by providing an optical reference port. The optical reference port provides excellent IL repeatability less than 0.005 dB option.

In Particular, the MPM-220 has a lineup of various types of modules. The MPM-215 is suitable for high-speed measurement of optical components with a dynamic range of 50 dB or more. The MPM-217 has an interchangeable adapter attachments, it is now possible to support SC and LC connectors in addition to the conventional FC connector. Also, by using a general fusion splicer adapter, it is possible to measure bare fiber. Seeing as the new MPM-220 multi-port optical power meter is command compatible with the previous MPM-210 model, switching to the new MPM-220 is as simple as swapping out your devices.
