Optical Power Monitor


IPD/MTP/UTP are optical power monitoring devices consisting of individual tap-integrated photo detector.
They eliminate the need for a separate optical fiber coupler/splitter and a photo detector, and provide a simple and low cost solution for optical power monitoring of DWDM, optical switch and amplifier systems.
