Product Overview: Fluke FOM Fiber Optic Meter
The Fluke Fiber Optic Meter (FOM) helps you test and maintain fiber optic cable without having to buy a whole new meter. Plug the FOM directly into any DMM with a mV dc function and a 10 MΩ input impedance and quickly and accurately verify fiber optic cable system loss. Light sources and patch cords sold separately.
