Delivering Accurate Power Measurements
Enjoy exceptional performance, flexibility, ease of use and extensive integration capabilities
with EXFO’s IQS-1500 Calibration Power Meter. Like all IQS products, this module features
PC-based software and a standardized graphical user interface (GUI). What’s more, the
IQS-1500 offers very low uncertainty (± 2 % to 3 %) and high-performance linearity (± 0.01 dB).
The Q1 model is calibrated at the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST),
providing an uncertainty of as little as 0.9 % for three user-selected wavelengths.

Enabling In-House Verification and Calibration of Power Meters
Combine the IQS-1500 with the IQS-2400 WDM Laser Source (DFB laser) to perform in-house power-meter verification and calibration.
The NIST-calibrated IQS-1500-Q1 model provides < ± 0.9 % uncertainty at reference conditions, which enables local calibration of all optical power meters.

Because its central wavelength can easily be pinpointed, a DFB laser source such as the IQS-2400 is ideal for calibrating both at 1310 nm and 1550 nm.
Use its coherence control setting to modulate the signal, therefore minimizing interference.

The IQS Solution: The Easy Way to First-Class Calibration
Housed in the IQS-500 Intelligent Test System, the IQS-1500 Calibration Power Meter features user-friendly, flexible, Windows-compatible software.
Easily select all configuration parameters from a single setup window.

Choose from two operation modes: standard power measurement or calibration. A complete step-by-step procedure guides you through the power-meter
calibration operation, resulting in systematic, repeatable and scientifically valid results. Experienced users can access individual steps directly from the
main window.

This procedure yields a detailed calibration report (in HTML format), with total calibration uncertainty for each calibrated wavelength. Data can be saved
on a floppy disk, the system’s hard drive or a remote controller station, making storage space practically limitless. Thanks to Windows-based software,
the IQS-1500 can work with any compatible system.
