The PXM/LXM combo is an MPO tester designed to efficiently certify a large number of MPO links for single or multimode fibers. It tests MPO-12 fibers at 2 wavelengths in just 1 second, the fastest test time in the industry. The FasTesT™ feature provides loss per channel at the 2 selected wavelengths, as well as the length and polarity type of the link under test—all at the press of a button.
Key Features:
Global pass/fail status and pass/fail per fiber with length measurement
Insertion loss per wavelength
Polarity type (A, B, C or U) with graphical representation
Pass/fail on actual polarity type versus expected polarity type
