The built-in stabilized light source maintains outstanding output stability: drift≤0.05 dB within 15 minutes and≤0.2 dB over 8 continuous working hours.
3. TLS-43 Stabilized Light Source
A staple tool for field fiber inspection, fiber sensing, cable deployment and routine maintenance, stabilized light sources are essential for field telecom engineers. Orientek TLS-43 outputs standard 0 dBm reference optical power with consistent long-term stability, applicable to link loss testing, project acceptance and on-site calibration of optical power meters. Technical indicators: short-term drift ≤±0.05 dB in 15 minutes, long-term drift≤±0.2 dB after 8-hour continuous operation.
4. TPM-43(V) Optical Power Meter
A core instrument for fiber network maintenance, Orientek TPM-43 Optical Power Meter supports 9 commonly-used test wavelengths for versatile field applications. Equipped with a large 1000μm receiving aperture, it improves light coupling efficiency and simplifies fiber connection, with power stability around 0.1 dB and measurement accuracy of±0.2 dB. The upgraded TPM-43V combines optical power testing and visual fault locating with an enhanced built-in VFL for quick fiber break detection.
5. TPM-43F WDM Power Meter
Evolving fiber-optic networks bring increasingly complex field maintenance scenarios, limiting the usability of conventional optical power meters. Wavelength Division Multiplexing Selective Optical Power meters have become indispensable for PON/WDM maintenance and FTTH installation & troubleshooting.
Custom-developed for PON systems, Orientek TPM-43F supports calibrated wavelengths: 1310nm, 1490nm, 1270nm and 1577nm, fully compatible with GPON and 10G PON architectures. Adopting optical filter isolation technology with isolation over 35dB and 1270~1520nm narrowband filtering design, it accurately separates 1490nm and 1550nm signals to eliminate crosstalk and guarantee dependable test results.
II. Upgraded Hardware & Software Design
The full 4.3-inch premium instrument range receives comprehensive upgrades across calibrated wavelength options, touchscreen interface, rechargeable battery and outer construction.
Expanded calibrated wavelength coverage meets full-spectrum demands for broadband, PON, 5G and WDM applications. All units come with a 4.3-inch HD capacitive touchscreen to replace physical buttons, enabling intuitive fingertip operation and simplifying complicated testing workflows.
Battery capacity is upgraded to 5000mAh for remarkably extended runtime. Every model is factory-fitted with an RJ45 port for one-click cable tracing via network cable connection. In addition, full-body shock-resistant rubber housing improves drop resistance and extends service lifespan.
In terms of user experience, the premium 4.3-inch instrument series features continuous optimizations in usability, reliability and compatibility, paired with more human-centric interactive design.
Usability
The device supports configurable auto power-off timers to conserve power and protect batteries and hardware. Models TPM-43V, TPM-43PM and TPM-43F are equipped with one-click data storage, capable of saving approximately 900 records that can be exported via the USB port.
Reliability
Every unit undergoes performance and calibration tests under standard environmental conditions prior to factory shipment to guarantee consistent, stable quality.
Compatibility
It comes standard with replaceable universal ports. Adapters can be quickly swapped out in addition to the factory-fitted connectors, easily addressing the issue of assorted connectors on-site.
These five instruments cover core application scenarios including stabilized light source emission, optical power measurement, all-in-one optical multimeter testing, multi-wavelength PON network inspection, and optical signal attenuation adjustment. They deliver a full suite of optical measurement tools for FTTH installation & maintenance, data center operation & maintenance, and optical component testing.
