Datasheet

Overview

The Anritsu MU909060A1 is a Gigabit Ethernet module for the MT9090A Network Master mainframe. It has one SFP slot and one electrical RJ-45 port. Installed in the compact, battery-powered Network Master, it provides Gigabit Ethernet testing for the installation, maintenance and troubleshooting of Ethernet communication lines, including bandwidth verification, connectivity testing and service availability verification.

The tester is designed for field use. It has no fans or vents, is ready for measurement in about 15 seconds, and provides up to 3 hours of testing on a single charge, depending on configuration and setup. A 4.3-inch wide-screen color display shows results with color-coded graphical symbols, and a Test Automator lets users set up a sequence of tests. Setups can be stored and distributed to other instruments through the USB port.

Testing capabilities

For installation, commissioning and QoS verification, the module generates traffic, including VLAN-tagged traffic, and supports BER testing, performance statistics and QoS statistics. Ping, traceroute, electrical cable diagnostics and service disruption time measurement are included. Optional software adds automated RFC 2544 testing, with end-to-end testing between two units, as well as ITU-T Y.1564 multi-service testing, Multistream, Stacked VLAN, MPLS, Channel Stats and Remote GUI operation through a web browser.

Two-port operation

Both ports can be used at the same time, which shortens testing of multiple ports. They also allow pass-through monitoring and bidirectional monitoring. Test results can be exported as PDF or CSV reports.
