Anritsu announces field measuring OTDRs
Anritsu
Access Master MT9083B performance series
Anritsu has introduced its Access Master MT9083B performance series, the next generation in field measuring OTDRs for construction and maintenance of optical networks.
Anritsu has designed the MT9083B performance series to ensure networks are installed and operating properly while the cost of measurement is reduced.
Many OTDRs claim to be able to test PON-based FTTx networks, but the MT9083B series is able to do it with high resolution and high range.
Splitters up to a single 1x64 or closely-spaced, distributed splitters are completely and accurately measured.
A 1650nm wavelength with integrated filter is also available for troubleshooting in-service PON systems.
For traditional point-to-point optical networks, the MT9083B series features up to 42dB of dynamic range and achieves high performance for measurement speed and measurable distance with minimum deadzone.
With the MT9083B series, a 100km/62-mile fibre can be tested in six seconds; many fibres can even be tested in real-time without any averaging due to the high-performance optics.
