WaveTester Series test kits are ideal for the fiber optic professional who requires standards-based certification of multimode and/or singlemode fiber links, including TIA-568, ISO 11801, and Ethernet.
When used with WaveSource series fiber optic light sources, the WaveTester’s Auto-testing feature allows user to test two wavelengths simultaneously, cutting testing time nearly in half. Up to 200 test results can be internally stored in the WaveTester, which can then be later downloaded to a PC running OWL Reporter software using the supplied USB cable. OWL’s userfriendly Link Wizard walks the user through the key parameters of the link under test – cabling standard, fiber type, fiber length, patch panels, splices, etc. – indicating a PASS or FAIL test result. Certification reports can then be printed, and data can be stored on hard disk for later retrieval.
The WaveTester / Dual OWL / Laser OWL Test Kit contains the tools necessary for certifying fiber optic links against a myriad of popular cabling standards in multimode networks at 850 nm and 1300 nm, and singlemode networks at 1310 nm and 1550 nm.
The Dual OWL is a multimode light source. Its output is temperature- stabilized for accurate measurements. Two connector options are available (ST and SC).
The Laser OWL is a singlemode light source. Its output is temperature-stabilized for accurate measurements. Two connector options are available (ST and SC).

Certification of multimode fiber links at 850 nm and 1300 nm, and singlemode fiber links at 1310 nm and 1550 nm
Data storage for up to 200 data points
USB interface for continuous data logging, report printing, or data downloading
OWL Reporter software for printing formatted fiber certification reports
Measurement modes include absolute (for optical power) or relative (for optical loss)
