VIAVI OLP-35 Optical Power Meter
The VIAVI OLP-35 optical power meter is a handheld instrument for precise fiber measurements. It is intended for industrial automation plants that require repeatable verification of optical power. This unit uses an InGaAs detector to maintain stability across extended wavelengths. In production fiber networks the OLP-35 verifies link performance during commissioning maintenance and fault localization. The optical power meter supports a wavelength range from 780 to 1650 nm. Its wavelength selection is adjustable in 1 nm steps so technicians can accurately match service wavelengths during device configuration. The calibrated wavelengths include 850 to 1625 nm. Its 5 programmable wavelength presets let users store frequently required configurations for standardized automation test templates and acceptance procedures.
It covers dB, dBm and W supporting consistent documentation within engineering records and quality management databases. Its measurement range extends from -65 to 10 dBm that enables verification of low power links. The unit’s display range reaches -65 to 13 dBm that provides margin when observing fluctuating live signals. Its maximum input power of 16 dBm protects the OLP-35 meter during exposure to amplified channels. The intrinsic uncertainty of this power meter is 0.2 dB under specified reference conditions for ensuring reliable link assessment. Its optical interface accepts universal 2.5 mm connectors used with standard patch cords in automation cabinets. An optional 1.25 mm adapter supports LC or MU ports in high density panels. It simplifies fiber identification in dense fields due to its tone detection at 270 Hz, 1000 Hz and 2000 Hz.
Its auto wavelength mode synchronizes the OLP-35 with compatible VIAVI sources and eliminates manual wavelength adjustments during repetitive tests. The unit’s internal storage preserves 100 measurement records for later retrieval and structured analysis. The micro-USB interface of optical power meter connects the instrument to supervisory systems, which enables automated result transfer and archive generation. Power is supplied by two AA alkaline cells/rechargeable nickel metal hydride cells aligned with maintenance standards. The OLP-35 uses SNT 505 adapter that enables extended operation during long commissioning campaigns. Its battery life of at least 200 hours supports prolonged deployment before logistics teams schedule battery replacement activities. The automatic power down after 20 minutes conserves available capacity when field technicians perform intermittent verification throughout dispersed facilities.
