CMA 4500 Optical Time Domain Reflectometer
Combining the technology of the industry leading CMA4000 OTDR with the CMA5000
Multi-Layer Test Platform makes the CMA 4500 the Next Generation in OTDR
Testing.
Based upon NetTest's leading OTDR technology and its advanced CMA5000
Multi-Layer Test Platform, the CMA 4500 takes fiber installation, maintenance
and documentation of the network to the next level. Designed to provide
exceptional performance at a price that fits most budgets, it's the ideal tool
for Metro, CWDM, ultra-long haul and PON based, fiber-to-the-premise (FTTP)
deployments.
Featuring an intuitive and user-friendly GUI, a powerful, Windows ® operating
system, a large, high resolution color display with touch screen interface and
rugged casework, the CMA 4500 can cover any testing requirements from single
mode to multimode, from 10 meters to 250Km. Sophisticated analysis software
then provides consistent and accurate fiber characterization automatically or
with the press of a button. USB ports, a 10/100 Ethernet interface, modular I/O
drives and dedicated testing modes further ensure unparalleled ease of use and
flexibility.
As an added value, the CMA 4500 can be equipped with a stabilized light source,
power meter and a Visual Fault Locator (VFL) that enables users to visually
locate breaks within central offices and quickly identify specific fibers
within a cable or splice tray. An available connector inspection microscope
further reduces costly troubleshooting of connector related issues by quickly
pinpointing the source of the problem, all without any of the risks associated
with conventional microscopes.
Dedicated testing modes designed specifically for the task at hand.
Working in Fault Locate Mode, the CMA 4500 is ideal for reel testing or
continuity verification. It allows you to quickly and easily identify faults,
all at the touch of a single button. A built-in connection check verifies
proper fiber connection and thus, completes fiber characterization in a matter
of seconds.
Designed for fiber installation and commissioning, the CMA4500's Construction
Mode automates frequently performed tasks, eliminating common user errors such
as incorrectly named or missing traces. It allows users to test, analyze and
save multiple wavelength traces with the touch of a single button.
The CMA 4500 Standard OTDR features the ability to manually set all, some or
none of the testing parameters, providing unsurpassed parameter optimization.
Key parameters such as wavelength, pulse width, range/resolution and averaging
mode can easily be set via the CMA4500's touch screen or dedicated hard key
interfaces. The Standard OTDR's ability to overlay up to eight traces
simultaneously, four display options and user selectable loss modes ensure that
a user has all the tools needed to test their network.
