The Yokogawa AQ1210D is a compact optical time-domain reflectometer (OTDR) engineered for installation, commissioning, and maintenance of fiber-optic networks spanning access, LAN, PON, FTTA, FTTH, and FTTB deployments. It delivers dual-mode testing across single-mode and multimode fibers with four operational wavelengths: 850 nm ±15 nm, 1300 nm ±30 nm, 1310 nm ±20 nm, and 1550 nm ±20 nm. The instrument achieves dynamic ranges of 37 dB (1310 nm SM), 35 dB (1550 nm SM), 27 dB (1300 nm MM), and 25 dB (850 nm MM).
