To test the end to end performance of a fiber optic system two pieces of handheld equipment are needed an opm tester and a light source.
Optical power in fiber optics is similar to the heating power of a light bulb just at much lower power levels.
Fiber optic cable loss insertion loss with light source and power meter standard.
In addition to a power meter you need a test source.

Other general purpose light power measuring devices are usually called radiometers photometers laser power meters can be photodiode sensors or thermopile laser sensors light meters or lux meters.
An optical power meter opm is a device used to measure the power in an optical signal.
Fotp 171 for cable assemblies standard.
Optical loss tested with a light source power meter and two reference cables is the most common measurement in fiber optics.
This kit includes an optical source which fires a signal into the cable and an optical meter which reads the signal at the other end.
To perform an insertion loss test buy a testing kit from a fiber optic or it company.
