OP250
Stabilized Light Source
The OP250 is a configurable stabilized light source with a variety of
Lasers and LEDs. Available in a single port or dual port configuration,
selectable wavelengths, and various power levels and industry
standard optical interfaces this instrument offers all the features and
functions necessary for the development, testing and inspecting of
optical components and cables. The standalone, internally powered
module also connects to the USB port of any computer. OptoTest
provides for drivers and applications integrating it with the OP500
series of power meters. This allows the user to perform common
measurement tasks such as EXCEL compatible data logging or timestamped
stability measurements.
Stabilized Light Source
Stabilized Light Source
Depending on the type of source the one hour stability
is better than 0.02dB.LEDs and if necessary laser
sources are temperature compensated. InGaAs
detector, +6dBm...-75dBm for Silicon detector.
Single port Laser source
Available wavelengths are between 630nm and
1625nm at power levels up to 5mW.
Dual port Laser source
Configured for telecom testing at 1310nm and
1550nm, other combinations are available per
customer request.
Single port or dual port LED source
Selectable wavelength are between 630nm and
1550nm with power levels up to 1mW. Special

Applications
Internal chargeable batter y
The internal battery is based on latest Lithium Ion
technology for longer lasting operation.
USB Powered, plug& play data acquisition
Besides the internal chargeable battery or external power
supply the OP250 is a bus powered, low power (<100mA)
USB device. In addition to powering the source the battery
is charged through the USB bus. With the supplied drivers
the source output power and can be controlled remotely.
Integrated ambient temperature tracking
If connected to the USB bus the OP250 measures the
ambient temperature (Cº or Fº) within -10 Cº ...+55 Cº at
a resolution of 0.1 Cº. This feature eliminates the need for
an external temperature sensor during long-term stability
testing.
Generic Applications
Wherever and whenever a light source is needed to test
or qualify optical components, cables and systems the
OP250 is an economical solution.
Cable Insertion Loss
When bundled with the OP500 series optical power
meters the insertion loss of cables is measured
and logged efficiently all controlled with the OPL-5
application software.
Multi-Wavelength Source
The remote control feature of the OP250 comes in handy
when a device such as a WDM is tested with multiple
wavelengths. Part number, and serial number directly into
spreadsheets. The Test button on the module allows the
user to trigger measurements on the desk.
