The EXFO AXS-110 is a handheld Optical Time Domain Reflectometer (OTDR) engineered for fault location and fiber characterization across singlemode and multimode networks. Operating at 850 nm, 1300 nm, 1310 nm, and 1550 nm, it delivers dynamic ranges from 24 dB to 32 dB depending on wavelength and fiber type. The instrument achieves an exceptional 0.8 m event dead zone, enabling precise detection of closely spaced events in dense cabling environments—critical for inside-plant, data center, enterprise, campus, and access network deployments.
