EXFO PPM-350D – Next-gen PON power meter

The EXFO PPM-350D Next-Gen PON Power Meter is a versatile and powerful tool for testing PON networks of all types. It supports a wide range of PON technologies, including GPON, EPON, XG/XGS-PON, and NG-PON2, as well as RF overlay. The PPM-350D is also equipped with a number of features that make it easy to use and efficient, including PON-aware™ technology, Pass/Fail LEDs, a touchscreen display, and internal storage with Bluetooth and USB connectivity.

Features

PON-aware™ technology automatically detects and adapts test parameters for the PON technology, eliminating the need for technicians to configure the instrument manually.
Pass/Fail LEDs provide technicians with a quick and easy way to identify any problems with the network under test. The LEDs are illuminated green when the test passes and red when it fails.
The touchscreen display is large and easily read, even in direct sunlight. It provides technicians with all of the information they need to perform their tests, including the type of PON technology being tested, the optical power levels, and the Pass/Fail status of the test.
Internal storage can store up to 1000 test results. This makes it easy for technicians to keep track of their work and to generate reports.
Bluetooth and USB connectivity allow technicians to transfer test results and generate reports without connecting the instrument to a computer. This can be useful for technicians who are working in remote locations.
