Quad Attenuation Measurement Kit for Multimode & Singlemode

Description

FiberXpert 700 – Quad Attenuation Measurement Kit for Multimode & Singlemode
The Softing FiberXpert 700 Quad MM/SM Test Kit is a complete, calibrated Tier 1 solution for certifying both multimode and singlemode fiber optic links. Designed for intuitive, flexible, and fast operation, it provides standardized link certification with automatic wavelength detection and clear PASS/FAIL results on a color LCD. With internal storage for up to 10,000 measurements and the ability to print official test reports via PC software, it is the ideal companion for professional fiber network installation and documentation.

Detailed Description

The FiberXpert 700 Quad MM/SM Test Kit contains all the tools necessary to perform Tier 1 certification (attenuation and length measurement) on fiber optic connections, conforming to common cabling standards like TIA and ISO. The kit includes a calibrated optical power meter and a quad light source covering both multimode (850/1300 nm LED) and singlemode (1310/1550 nm FP laser) wavelengths. A user-friendly link wizard with helpful on-screen graphics guides the user through the setup process. Automatic wavelength detection and data storage significantly reduce test time and eliminate the risk of operator error. Measurement results, up to 10,000, are stored internally and can be transferred to a PC via USB for generating official test reports. The large, clear LCD display shows results in color for instant PASS/FAIL status identification. The kit is powered by a long-life, rechargeable lithium polymer battery.

Applications

The FiberXpert 700 is the ideal tool for:

  • Fiber Optic Network Certification: Perfect for performing Tier 1 certification of multimode and singlemode links in LANs, data centers, and campus networks.
  • FTTx Installation & Testing: Ideal for verifying loss and continuity in Fiber-to-the-x (FTTx) networks, including Class A, B, and C budgets.
  • Continuity & Patch Cord Testing: Suitable for quickly checking fiber continuity and testing patch cords or reference test fibers.
  • Quality Assurance Documentation: Used by installers to generate official, printable test reports proving compliance with standards like TIA-568-C.3 and ISO 11801.
  • Troubleshooting Fiber Links: Invaluable for measuring optical power and loss to identify problematic connections.

 

Advantages

  • Complete Tier 1 Kit: Includes both power meter and quad light source for comprehensive multimode and singlemode certification out of the box.
  • Fast & Error-Free Testing: Automatic wavelength detection and data storage minimize test time and prevent operator mistakes.
  • Instant Results: Clear color LCD display shows PASS/FAIL status at a glance, based on user-defined or standard limits.
  • Extensive Memory: Stores up to 10,000 measurements internally for large projects.
  • Professional Reporting: Generates official test reports directly from the included PC software via USB connection.
  • User-Friendly Operation: Link wizard with helpful graphics and intuitive interface make setup and testing simple.
