FiberBasix handheld instruments meet your basic day-to-day test requirements while helping you stay within budget. These worry-free, straightforward solutions enable accurate measurement of signal attenuation during fiber-optic cable installation.

Ideal for network-link certification, the FiberBasix 500 series includes three highly convenient instruments: the EOT-500 Optical Loss Test Set, a versatile instrument that
combines a power meter and a light source; the ELS-500 Light Source, combining up to four wavelengths and available in four specific configurations; and the EPM-500 Power Meter, which offers high accuracy and referencing capabilities.

• Pass/fail thresholds and LED indicator
• Memory capacity of 1000 data items; data transfer to a PC via USB connection
• Error-free testing: automatic wavelength recognition, and no offset nulling required
• Visual fault locator (VFL) option for quick and easy troubleshooting
  

Rugged, Reliable, Convenient
Like all EXFO portable instrument/bs, FiberBasix 500 handhelds are built for top ruggedness and convenience, perfect for the harshest test conditions. They feature a keypad/LCD backlight, for easy operation in darker environments, rechargeable batteries and interchangeable connectors.

FTTx Ready
EXFO’s FiberBasix testers allow for the testing of passive optical networks (PONs) at 1310, 1490 and 1550 nm, the three wavelengths recommended by the ITU-T (G.983.3) for PONs.
