MLP1 Fiber Optic Loss Test Kits
The MLP1 test kits are inexpensive solutions for testing multimode and single-mode
systems. By joining the OPM 1 optical power meter and the OLS1 optical light source, the
MLP1 is a great kit for beginners or network owners. Two versions of the MLP1 test kit
are available for testing Premises networks, LAN, and Gigabit Ethernet. The MLP1-1S test
kit includes the OPM1-2C power meter and OLS1-1C light source. The MLP1-2 test kit
combines the OPM1-2C optical power meter and OLS1-2C optical light source
