CONVERSION FACTORS
The VOLT displays fiber length in kilometers. At times it may be necessary to convert
the fiber length to a different unit of measurement. The table below provides
conversion factors for various units of measurement.
To calculate the units you need, multiply the number on the VOLT display by the
conversion factor listed in the table below:
1 kilometer
1 kilometer
1 kilometer
1000 meters
0.6214 miles
3281 feet

Examples:
Here are some examples of converting the VOLT display into
different units of measurement. For these examples, let us
assume a fiber length of 1.25 kilometers as shown by the
display at right.
kilometers to meters
1.250 x 1000 = 1250 meters
kilometers to miles
1.250 x 0.6214 = 0.777 miles
kilometers to feet
1.250 x 3281 = 4101.25 feet
