OptoTest Announces New OP960 Insertion Loss and Return Loss Meters, Now Faster and More Reliable Than Ever
Simplex Testing
Video: Testing Bidirectional Insertion Loss and Return Loss on a Simplex DUT
Bidirectional testing is an effective way to test connector-level return loss (RL) and throughput insertion loss (IL) for a variety of different DUTs. In this video, our CTO Chris Heisler walks through the process of referencing and performing a bidi test on a simplex DUT using OPL-CLX. Learn how this new software suite enhances the test process by simplifying how the operator captures results and creates labels for the finished product.
Testing Insertion Loss and Return Loss of a Simplex Cable in OPL-MAX
In this video we will go through the process of testing insertion loss and return loss of a simplex cable in OPL-Max. This standard setup allows us to explore the features and functions of OPL-Max that operators are likely to encounter day to day.
Testing an APC to APC Cable Assembly Using a Reference Reflector Cable
In this video we demonstrate how to test an APC to APC cable assembly using a Reference Reflector Cable.
To reference Insertion Loss, connect the reference cable to the source port and detector and select “IL Ref” and then “Start IL Ref”.
Testing Insertion Loss and Return Loss on APC Cables Using APC Reference Feature
In this video we demonstrate how to use the APC Reference feature on the OP940 front panel to test an APC to APC cable assembly.
To reference Insertion Loss, connect the reference cable to the source port and detector and select “IL Ref” and then “Start IL Ref”.
