OWL Dual Wavelength Multimode Light Sources

Features:

Stable temperature compensated LED sources
Contains both commonly used multimode wavelengths: 850 and 1300nm
Available with either ST or SC fiber connectors (replace ‘xx’ at end of part number with ST or SC to specify connector type)
Extended battery life - up to 30 hours on one 9v battery
Combination selected source / Low battery indicator LEDs
Simple two-button operation
NIST traceable
Very economically priced
Applications:

The Dual OWL is a cost effective, compact, handheld light source. The temperature compensated outputs are calibrated to couple -20dBm of optical power into multimode fiber. The light source comes installed with the two most commonly used multimode wavelengths - 850nm and 1300nm. The source has an intuitive two-button interface - one button for turning the unit ON or OFF and the other for wavelength selection. LED indicators highlight the selected source and verify that battery power is sufficient to maintain the calibrated output power.

Dual OWL series fiber optic light sources offer exceptional value at an economical price. These LED-based sources provide the fiber optic installer with a stable output when testing multimode fiber optic runs. The Dual OWL combines an 850nm and a 1300nm LED into one light source to provide the widest range of options for multimode optical fiber testing.

High intensity LEDs such as the ones in Dual OWL light sources produce intense beams of infrared energy that are invisible to the eye.

NEVER LOOK INTO A LIGHT SOURCE OR THE END OF A FIBER THAT MAYBE ENERGIZED BY A SOURCE!

Exposure to such energy can cause serious retina damage, and prolonged exposure can cause blindness.
