The EXFO FPM-600 is an optical power meter engineered for accurate power measurements across fiber optic systems in both field and laboratory settings. It delivers reliable data for network installation, maintenance, and qualification tasks, operating across the 800 nm to 1650 nm wavelength range with measurement capability up to 26 dBm.
## Technical Specifications
• **Wavelength Range**: 800 nm to 1650 nm
• **Calibrated Wavelengths**: Over 40 calibrated wavelengths including all CWDM channels; supports user-defined wavelengths via interpolation between calibrated points
• **Measurement Range**: Up to 26 dBm
• **Display Units**: dB, dBm, and W
• **Tone Detection**: 270 Hz, 1 kHz, and 2 kHz
• **Data Storage**: 1000 entries
• **Data Transfer**: USB port to PC
## Key Features
• High accuracy across calibrated wavelengths with documented uncertainty specifications
• User-configurable pass/fail thresholds with integrated LED indicator
• Min/max power capture for measuring power bursts and fluctuations
• Automatic wavelength detection when paired with compatible EXFO light sources
• No offset nulling required
• Backlit display and keypad for low-light operation
• Optional Visual Fault Locator (VFL)
• Professional reporting software with link certification and pass/fail documentation
## Typical Applications
• Passive optical network (PON) testing at 1310 nm, 1490 nm, and 1550 nm per ITU-T G.983.3
• DWDM and CWDM network qualification
• Fiber optic link installation and commissioning
