When combined with a light source, the instrument is called an Optical Loss Test Set, or OLTS, and is typically used to measure optical power and end-to-end optical loss. More advanced OLTS may incorporate two or more power meters, and so can measure Optical Return Loss.

Typical power levels measured by an optical power meter: Telecom transmitters: 0 to +10 dBm (1 to 10 milliwatts), Receivers: -30 dBm (1 microwatt) DWDM systems with fiber amplifiers: +10 to +20 dBm (10 to 100 milliwatts), Receivers: -20 to -30 dBm (1-10 microwatt). Typical Measurement Values in Fiber Optics Here are some typical measurements in fiber optics of optical power and loss. You may want to come back to this section as you read the explanations of dB and dBm below. This falls into visible wavelength (from 400nm to 700nm) and near infrared wavelength (from 700nm to 1700nm) in the electromagnetic spectrum shown in Figure 3. Attenuation in fiber optics is the gradual loss of light signal strength as it travels through a fiber cable. When a fiber attenuates (also known as background loss), less power will be seen at the output than the input. The relationship is: 1mw=0dbm, that is to say, 2mw=3dbm, 10*lgmw is the dbm value.

These next generation smart optical power meters and optical light sources are designed on the legacy of the AFL/Noyes OPM and OLS series. These inclusive kits provide rapid loss testing with pass/fail results for use in enterprise LAN, data center, PON, and broadband. EXFO's optical loss test sets (OLTSs) are available in dedicated handheld instruments and platform-based modules to suit various network architectures and test requirements. The estimate, called a "loss budget" is calculated using typical component losses for.
