The Anritsu MW910C is a portable Optical Time Domain Reflectometer (OTDR) engineered for field testing and maintenance of optical fiber networks. This compact instrument delivers accurate fault detection and loss measurement across fiber spans up to 144 km, combining 1 meter readout resolution with 0.01 dB loss accuracy in a lightweight, battery-backed platform. The MW910C accepts 16 interchangeable optical plug-in units, enabling deployment across multimode and single-mode fiber types at 0.85 µm, 1.31 µm, and 1.55 µm wavelengths, including dual-wavelength configurations. A temperature-controlled laser source ensures stable optical output and wavelength stability, critical for reproducible measurements of transmission loss, fusion splice losses, and connector losses in production, maintenance, and field service environments.
