Anritsu has enhanced the MS269xA signal analyser with four new functions, including spectrogram and spurious emission measurement functions.
Coming in a small, light and rugged handheld format, this easy to use instrument is the ideal and essential mate of each field technician for installation, maintenance and troubleshooting of CWDM access networks.
Thanks to its reduced boot-up and warm-up times, the Network Master OCA allows a rapid characterisation of a CWDM network, with a global vision of all the CWDM channels displayed in a graph or a table window on the large screen of the instrument.
The network analysis is simplified thanks to stored pass and fail indicators that comply with the ITU-T G.695 standard.
Several drift functions allow a long-term characterisation of the channels, a key point in CWDM networks where channels are lightened by uncooled lasers.
"The Network Master OCA has been especially designed to be the essential tool for the installation, maintenance, and troubleshooting of CWDM access networks".
"Its small sise, light weight and elegant look will benefit to every field technicians", says Gildas Chauvel, Product Manager, Anritsu Instruments Company.
"The software interface has been carefully developed to particularly ease the measurements of CWDM parameters, and will require quite no training to characterise a CWDM network in a glance".
The Network Master OCA is available for immediate delivery.
