AQ2170

The  AQ2170  series  are  full  featured  mini  sized  and  lightweight 

optical power meters designed for use with an optical Light source 

to perform optical loss measurements on optical fiber cables. 

Optical  connections  to  the  AQ2170  are  made  via  the  universal 

adapter interface on the top of the unit. 

The  instrument  has  7  working  wavelengths(The  AQ2170H  is  5 

wavelengths) to totally satisfy your needs. 

It  can  be  extensively  used  in  telecommunication  projects  and 

other  situations  where  optical  power  of  wavelengths  close  to 

infrared ray needs to be measured.
