Overview

The ACCESS Master MT9085B-063 is the all-in-one single-mode and multimode model of the Enhanced (Performance) tier in the Anritsu MT9085 series. It combines optical pulse testing (OTDR) at 1310/1550 nm on single-mode fiber and 850/1300 nm on multimode fiber with optical loss and power measurement and optical fiber end-face inspection in one compact handheld unit. It supports installation and maintenance (I&M) of SMF and MMF links in metro, long-haul and PON-based FTTx networks.

OTDR measurement

The OTDR measures fiber transmission loss and fiber length and detects events such as splices, connectors, splitters and breaks. The Fiber Visualizer function shows events as schematic icons with distance, loss and reflectance Pass/Fail results. Two realtime sweep modes, high-speed and high S/N, help locate fiber bends and check connections while the waveform is monitored. PON splitter analysis covers up to 1 × 128 branches. Manual analysis uses the rotary knob, hard keys and four markers with the two-point or LSA method.

Optical power, loss and end-face inspection

A stabilized light source and an optical power meter are built in as standard and use the OTDR port. Optional dedicated power meter ports add optical loss test set (OLTS) operation, and a visual fault locator is available as an option. With the external G0306C Video Inspection Probe, connector end faces can be inspected on the MT9085 screen and given automatic Pass/Fail evaluation to IEC61300-3-35.

Operation and data handling

The unit has an 8-inch color LCD touchscreen that can be used with work gloves on, together with dedicated hard keys and a rotary knob. Measurement data can be saved as original files (.sor, .vipi), .csv files, screen captures or PDF reports. Data can be transferred over USB, WLAN or Ethernet (through USB adapters), and the unit can be remote-controlled from a web-browser GUI or with remote commands.
