This unit
The EXFO FLS-130A is a stable laser light source purpose-built for insertion loss and continuity testing in singlemode fiber optic networks. It delivers high optical stability across standard telecommunication wavelengths and supports both single- and dual-wavelength configurations. The instrument generates continuous wave (CW) signals for power and loss measurements, plus 2 kHz modulation for fiber identification - essential capabilities for field installation, maintenance, and troubleshooting of fiber optic systems.
Technical Specifications
Wavelengths: Available in single-wavelength (850 nm, 1300 nm, 1550 nm) and dual-wavelength configurations (850/1300 nm, 1310/1550 nm). Output Signal: Continuous Wave (CW) for power and loss measurements; 2 kHz signal generation for fiber identification. Optical Stability: High optical stability with ± 1 °C temperature stability specified for typical performance. Port Configuration: Single or dual port options supporting single- or dual-wavelength operation.Key Features
- Universal Interface connectors on most models; accessory connectors (SC, ST, FC) available with select units
- Dual power options: 9 V battery with minimum 7-hour continuous runtime, or AC adapter
- 10-minute auto-off timer to extend battery life
- Compact field-portable design suitable for laboratory and on-site deployment
Typical Applications Insertion loss and continuity verification in singlemode fiber networks; fiber identification and tracing; acceptance testing and maintenance of installed fiber infrastructure.
Compatibility & Integration Designed for integration with EXFO test systems and compatible with standard single-mode fiber connectors. Models with SC/PC interfaces (such as FLS-135A-54) support direct connection to common network components.

Exfo FLS-130A — Repair & Calibration Service
Aumictech offers NIST-traceable calibration and repair for the Exfo FLS-130A. Calibration covers output power at specified wavelengths, wavelength accuracy, 15-minute output stability, and modulation frequency accuracy where applicable. All calibrations ship with a NIST-traceable certificate. Turnaround is typically 1–3 business days after receipt.
Common Exfo FLS-130A faults: laser diode end-of-life (output below spec), fiber output connector damage, output instability. Common repairs include laser diode replacement when output falls below spec, fiber output connector repair, and thermal management service.
