The EXFO MaxTester 730C PON/Metro OTDR is a fully featured, entry-level, dedicated OTDR with tablet-inspired design, suitable for metro and optimized to test through optical splitters, for seamless end-to-end FTTH characterization and troubleshooting. EXFO MaxTester 730C OTDRs feature a 7-inch outdoor-enhanced touchscreen and the ability to characterize and troubleshoot links up to 100 km with a dynamic range of 39 dB. MaxTester 730C PON/Metro OTDRs also find more problems closer to the splitter than other OTDRs thanks to the highest resolution for PON testing and the shortest PON dead zone available.
Features
