Equipped with inspection-ready capabilities and a user-friendly interface, these meters are perfect for technicians involved in the installation, verification, and maintenance of fiber networks across FTTx, access, metro, and enterprise environments.
With advanced features and rugged construction, the OLP-82 series helps ensure that every fiber connection is clean, properly installed, and performing to industry standards.
Compact Design. Powerful Performance.
The OLP-82 and OLP-82P are designed to deliver dependable results in a compact form factor. Whether you’re working on a rooftop, inside a data center, or at a curbside cabinet, these power meters are optimized for portability, durability, and ease of use.
They are ideal for technicians who need a simple but powerful tool for measuring optical power levels and ensuring link quality. With enhanced pass/fail analysis, real-time monitoring, and auto-wavelength detection, these meters streamline daily testing tasks while reducing errors.
Key Features & Benefits
Wide Dynamic Range: Accurately measure optical power from +26 to -50 dBm (OLP-82) and from +15 to -60 dBm (OLP-82P), suitable for most telecom and datacom applications.
Inspection-Ready Port: Compatible with the VIAVI P5000i digital inspection probe, allowing for fiber end-face cleanliness verification before testing.
Auto-Wavelength Recognition: Works with VIAVI OLS light sources for automatic wavelength detection and loss measurement.
Color Touchscreen Interface: High-contrast display with simple touch navigation for quick access to key functions.
Save & Export Results: Internal memory stores up to 1000 test records, with USB interface for data transfer and reporting.
Live Fiber Detection: Alerts users when a fiber is active, helping prevent service disruptions during testing.
Long Battery Life: Up to 10 hours of field operation on a single charge – ideal for long shifts in the field.
Inspection-Ready Advantage
Dirty or damaged fiber end-faces are the leading cause of fiber optic network issues. The OLP-82 series offers inspection-readiness, meaning it can be paired with a VIAVI fiber inspection probe to inspect and certify the cleanliness of connectors before any testing occurs.
This integrated approach ensures compliance with industry best practices and prevents false readings caused by contamination—helping technicians reduce repeat visits and increase network reliability.
Use Cases
The OLP-82 series is versatile and supports both singlemode and multimode fiber networks, making it ideal for service providers, contractors, and enterprise IT teams.
Seamless Workflow & Data Management
Integrated with VIAVI’s StrataSync™ cloud-based platform, the OLP-82 and OLP-82P allow users to sync test results, manage assets, and generate reports easily. This capability is essential for project management teams and supervisors looking to maintain test consistency, ensure compliance, and streamline field-to-office coordination.
The meters also work flawlessly with VIAVI’s SmartClass Fiber ecosystem, including optical light sources, OTDRs, and inspection scopes, enabling a complete end-to-end fiber testing solution.
Conclusion
The SmartClass Fiber OLP-82 / OLP-82P Inspection-Ready Optical Power Meters are rugged, reliable, and rich in features—designed for today’s fast-paced, high-precision fiber network environments. With the ability to inspect, test, and certify fiber connections in one portable unit, these tools help technicians work smarter, faster, and with greater confidence.
Whether you’re deploying new fiber infrastructure, certifying link quality, or performing routine maintenance, the OLP-82 series delivers the performance and flexibility needed to ensure clean, reliable, and high-performing fiber optic networks.
