JANUARY 19, 2010 -- JDSU has introduced a new family of optical test instruments and kits, the JDSU Optical SmartPocket handhelds, to support enterprise and broadband service providers. The JDSU Optical SmartPocket handhelds are designed to deliver an easy-to-use interface, accurate performance, and other features that make them the most suitable optical test tools for any field technician dealing with optical fiber, the company asserts.

With a total of six new meters in the SmartPocket family, JDSU says it can provide a meter for addressing most network structures and test applications. The family of optical instruments and kits includes JDSU Optical SmartPocket Power Meters and Light Sources.

JDSU Optical SmartPocket Power Meters (OLP-3x) are engineered to offer fast and accurate measurements of optical power level on singlemode and multimode optical networks. Mainly used to measure optical power level (dBm) in facilities, telecommunications networks, or cable television fiber-optic networks, they can also be combined with LED or laser light sources for insertion loss measurement.

JDSU Optical SmartPocket Light Sources (OLS-3x) can measure insertion loss and test the continuity in multimode data communications and LANs as well as singlemode telecommunication and cable television-multimedia networks.

"JDSU has a strong heritage of supporting our customers with multifunctional optical handhelds. The new SmartPocket line will phase out the oldest PocketClass handhelds which have sold more than 50,000 units worldwide over the last 10 years," said Enzo di Luigi, general manager in JDSU's Communications Test and Measurement business segment. "The SmartPocket family brings better accuracy, new innovative features, and superior performance at a lower price point."
