Overview

The ACCESS Master MT9085A-057 is the Standard-class member of the Anritsu MT9085 series configured with a 1310/1550/1625 nm single-mode OTDR module. The 1625 nm wavelength supports maintenance inspection and macrobend analysis alongside the standard 1310 nm and 1550 nm test wavelengths. The unit is a compact handheld all-in-one tester for optical pulse tests, optical loss and power measurements, and optical fiber end-face inspection.

OTDR measurement

The optical pulse test measures fiber transmission loss and fiber length and detects events such as breaks in fiber continuity. The Fiber Visualizer function displays events such as splices, connectors, PON splitters and the fiber end as schematic icons, with distance, loss and reflectance Pass/Fail evaluation against preset thresholds. Two realtime sweep modes (high-speed and high S/N) help locate fiber bends and the far end before averaging. Manual analysis uses the rotary knob, hard keys and four-marker operation with 2-point and LSA methods, and the touchscreen can be operated with work gloves on.

Power, loss and end-face inspection

A stabilized light source and an optical power meter are built in through the OTDR port. Dedicated power meter options add optical loss test set (OLTS) operation on a separate port, and a visual fault locator option helps locate breaks. With the external G0306C Video Inspection Probe (sold separately), the unit inspects connector end faces and gives Pass/Fail evaluation in accordance with IEC61300-3-35.

Data management

Measurement data can be saved in original formats (.sor, .vipi), as .csv files, as screen captures or as PDF reports. Files can be transferred to a PC by USB memory, USB cable, Ethernet or WLAN through USB adapters. The unit can also be controlled remotely through a web browser GUI or remote commands. Other functions include Cable Certification Test, Scenario Manager Lite, bi-directional analysis, the Installation Test for multiple fibers, and password protection.
