Reflective Attenuation Measurement Device BRM-100 | Compatible with Back Reflection and Insertion Loss Measurement
Automation of up to 72-channel rear reflection and insertion loss measurement. Ideal for high-precision evaluation of MPO/MTP, optical connectors, and optical fiber assemblies.
The BRM-100 is a reflection attenuation measurement device equipped with a highly stable optical system designed for high-precision measurement of back reflection and insertion loss (IL). It supports output configurations of 1/4/12/16/24/32/48/72 channels and is suitable for evaluating both single-mode and multi-mode fibers. Additionally, it can accommodate up to four built-in light sources corresponding to wavelengths of 450/650/780/850/1060/1300/1310/1490/1550/1625/1650 nm, and can be customized according to specific requirements. It achieves class-leading back reflection measurement accuracy (±0.4 dB) and a high measurement sensitivity of -85 dB. For multi-mode fiber assemblies such as MPO and duplex LC, it can support automated testing by combining the integrating sphere detector option with GMS software. The multi-mode model complies with the IEC 61280-4-1 Encircled Flux standard.

Detailed information
-
<Optimal Measurement Speed and Accuracy> Insertion loss (IL) and back reflection (BR) of the 12-core device can be measured in under 20 seconds at two wavelengths. With a high back reflection measurement accuracy of ±0.4dB and a measurement sensitivity of -85dB, it enables high-precision and efficient evaluation.
-
<Optimal for Component and Cassette Evaluation> There are no restrictions on the minimum measurement length, allowing for the evaluation of short devices such as fiber arrays and cassettes. NIST-traceable absolute optical power measurements are also possible.
-
<Integrating Sphere Detector> An integrating sphere detector is provided for measuring multi-core connectors such as MPO and fiber arrays. High throughput measurements are supported by the SD slide adapter and remote head options.
-
<Automatic Measurement Support> Supports automation of measurements with dedicated GMS software. It allows for saving measurement results, outputting reports in Excel and PDF formats, and SCPI control via USB/Ethernet.
-
<Custom Support> We accommodate our customers' diverse custom needs.
