Other general purpose light power measuring devices are usually called, power meters (can be sensors or ),or lux meters. The magnitude of this error is a function of both wavelength and connector type, and, as a result, the power meter should be calibrated with the same fiber and connector with which it is to be used. This effect is predominantly due to the radiation that is reflected from the detector (or window) surface back onto the. The display unit presents the power measurement in a user-friendly format, allowing technicians to.
