Used JDSU VA6503-FPL #9182074 for sale

JDSU VA6503-FPL is an automated fiber optic cable tester designed to quickly verify, and verify the performance of single-mode and multi-mode fiber optic cabling installations. This handheld unit is capable of testing and certifying fiber lengths up to 65km and can accommodate a wide variety of fiber types. VA6503-FPL can measure the following parameters: fiber length, loss, and data rate. Fiber length measurements provided by JDSU VA6503-FPL are obtained using a specialized laser-based technique. This technique utilizes a narrow light source that is sent down the fiber to measure its length. The amount of light that is reflected back from the fiber is then calculated to determine the length of the fiber. VA6503-FPL also includes features that allow users to quickly verify, and test the continuity of a fiber, as well as test for fiber breaks and areas of low signal quality. JDSU VA6503-FPL also allows users to measure loss in optical fibers. The unit utilizes a power meter to measure the amount of light being lost between two points of a fiber. Loss measurements are provided by measuring the output power of a light source at a given output connector and then comparing that to the power received at a given input connector. Loss measurements provided by VA6503-FPL are accurate to within +/- 0.1 dB. JDSU VA6503-FPL also includes features that allow users to test the data rate of a fiber. The unit utilizes an integrated BER tester to measure the bit error rate (BER) of digital signals being transmitted over a fiber. The BER tester is capable of measuring BER values up to 10-14. Additionally, VA6503-FPL includes features to assess the effect of environmental and mechanical factors on a fiber's performance. Overall, JDSU VA6503-FPL is an automated fiber optic cable tester that is capable of quickly verifying, and testing fiber lengths up to 65km, as well as providing users with detailed loss, and data rate measurements. VA6503-FPL is ideal for technicians and engineers looking for a reliable solution to quickly identify, and troubleshoot fiber optic related issues. The unit is designed with simple operation in mind and is capable of providing accurate and reliable results.
