1.  Summary 

KI6501  is  an  easy  and  economical  handheld  CWDM  Power  Meter  for 

testing  multi-

λ  single  mode  fiber  optic  systems.  It  scans  and  stores  the 

absolute  or  relative  power  levels  of  all  18  CWDM  λ  in  0.8  seconds.  Test 

data  can  be  viewed  in  graphical  or  numerical  form,  and  reference  values 

can be stored for easy loss testing.  The instrument has good ergonomics 

which  features  a  large,  sunlight  readable  and  backlit  colour  display,  and  a 

well  laid  out  and  easy  to  use  front  panel.  Data  Management  Software 

enables stored test data to be downloaded to PC.   

Applications of KI6501 CWDM Power Meter include the following: 

 

Wavelength selective Power Meter for systems with CWDM 

channel spacing. 

 

Quickly determine active channels. 

 

Diverse FTTx systems, RFoG etc.
