•
Select the 1310 nm output of the PROLITE-105 and take the reference value
of the power at this wavelength with the PROLITE-63.
•
Repeat the previous process for the wavelength at 1490 nm and 1550 nm.
Attenuation measurement in the optical communications network
Next the procedure to take the measurement is described (see figure).
Figure 18.- Attenuation measurement in the optical communications network.
•
Connect the PROLITE-105 to the transmission node from the optical
communications network that is desired to verify.
•
Activate the SEQ [5] key of the PROLITE-105. The source will sequentially
generate wavelengths at 1310 nm, 1490 nm and 1550 nm.
•
Connect
the
communications network.
•
To know the real value of that measurement you must select the wavelength at
1310 nm on the optical meter. Then select the wavelenght at 1490 nm and
1550 nm to know the real value at these wavelengths.
