Anritsu Network MT1000A Master Pro multifunction tester

Click2Contact

The Anritsu Network MT1000A Master Pro multifunction tester has a tri-wavelength OTDR module that provides field engineers and technicians with a comprehensive test tool to verify fibre lines in core, metro and mobile networks. The module supports high dynamic range at all wavelengths, including 1625 nm, which allows the product to conduct ‘extra sensitive’ tests to ensure the performance of today’s high-bandwidth networks.

The product can achieve dynamic range of up to 46 dB required for long transit links. The module also features a fibre visualiser, a fault location function that simplifies the entire testing process. It automatically selects the testing parameters to ensure the proper set-up and provides a simple, graphical summary of the fibre under test within seconds. It also has individualised pass/fail analysis to simplify fibre-optic testing.

Suitable for installation and maintenance of fibre networks, the product has specialised functions to make field testing more efficient. A construction OTDR mode provides an automated method of testing numerous fibres at multiple wavelengths during cable installation. A single set-up screen initiates a testing wizard, ensuring all fibres are tested and results stored using consistent file naming. Additionally, a bidirectional measurement function has been added for accurate and simple event loss analysis.

The compact, battery-powered and easy-to-use product provides a variety of testing capabilities in a rugged, field-portable package. A lightweight instrument, it simplifies the task of collecting and interpreting data with a GUI and clear summaries, allowing users of any skill level to operate the instrument to its full potential. The product is field upgradeable and can be configured with an array of OTDR modules and transport testing functions, including RFC2544/6349, Y.1564, OTN and CPRI/OBSAI, to address current core, metro and mobile backhaul network needs, as well as the flexibility to expand to support future technologies.
