Explanation
Measurement Wavelength
There are three instrument types, with the measurement light wavelengths listed below. Select a
wavelength from the available settings on the AQ1100 that you are using.
Model
Measurement Light Wavelength
AQ1200A
SM 1310 nm, SM 1550 nm
AQ1200B
SM 1625 nm
AQ1200C
SM 1650 nm
The light for a single mode (SM) optical fiber is emitted from optical port 2. Firmly connect the optical
fiber to the port that the light with the selected wavelength will be transmitted from. If you set the
measurement mode to Multi WL on the AQ1200A, you can simultaneously make measurements for the
1310 nm and 1550 nm wavelengths.
Distance Range
Specify a distance range that matches the cable length. The distance range that you can select varies
depending on the wavelength. Specify a distance range value that is greater than the length of the
optical fiber that you will measure. If you specify a shorter value, the AQ1200 will not be able to perform
measurements properly. The longer the distance that you specify, the more time measurements will
take. When you specify the distance range, the optimum pulse width and attenuation values are set
automatically.
