The in-line 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
Using PON power meter to test the SSS drop cable
Using PON power meter to test the Multi-port
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 times.
