This unit
The Exfo IQ-1103 Power Meter delivers precise optical power measurements across fiber optic systems for telecommunications, datacom, and laboratory applications. This modular instrument operates within the EXFO IQ platform, integrating with mainframes such as the IQ-203 and expansion units like the IQ-206 to build multi-channel measurement configurations. The IQ-1103 combines high dynamic range, fast stabilization, and flexible detector options to meet demanding field and bench-top deployment requirements.
