The PON power meter allows users to simultaneously measure signals in FTTH/PON networks:

  • upstream (1310nm burst-mode) from the ONT

  • downstream (1490/1550nm) from the OLT

  • conforming to ITU-T G.984 specifications

  • automatically display the downstream 1490/1550nm and upstream 1310nm power reading

The two optical ports (SC/APC) are physically connected in the optical link during testing.

To avoid wearing out the two PON power meter optical connectors, it is highly recommended to use two sacrificial patchcords (SC/APC to SC/APC), to be connected to the PON meter at all time.

Using the video inspection probe to check the connector end face regularly, change the patchcords accordingly.
