CMA5000a OTDR Module Series

Optical Time Domain Reectometer

The CMA5000a Optical Time Domain Reectometer (OTDR) application is based on over 30 years of development and experience in
characterizing optical bers. Our world – class OTDR modules continue this tradition with the latest in high performance hardware and dedicated,
easy to use software.

The compact size of the OTDR application module allows another module (OTDR or test ber box) to be inserted into a small bay adapter and up
to three more into a medium or large bay adapter.

•

High Performance Hardware

To satisfy even the most demanding testing requirements, the CMA5000a series OTDR modules, feature a multitude of available wavelengths
including 1310 nm, 1550 nm, and 1625 nm. Up to three of these wavelengths can be combined into a single optical port providing full spectrum
ber characterization at the press of a button and are ideal for testing backbone or metro networks that deploy CWDM. For ultra-long haul
systems, the CMA5000a OTDR modules feature up to 50 dB of dynamic range (enough to see approximately 250 km of ber) – with an impressive
1 meter resolution.

Dedicated, Ease to Use Software

To simplify testing, the CMA5000a features dedicated testing modes
to automate and simplify the task at hand.
Fault Locate mode is designed for someone just starting out or the
novice who only uses an OTDR occasionally. Simply connect the
ber and press test. The unit will verify the ber is connected
correctly, select testing parameters, execute the test and provide a
text response indicating fault/break location and end to end loss.

Fault Locate Mode – ease to read results

For those who have more experience or would like to perform more
advanced testing, Classic OTDR mode allows the user to select all
parameters, compare up to eight traces and even generate splice
loss reports.

Cable commissioning is also automated through the use of
Construction OTDR mode where a wizard allows the user to select
the required testing wavelengths, number of bers and le naming
scheme. The wizard then becomes the project manager guiding the
user through the testing and ensuring consistency with testing
parameters and le naming – virtually eliminating user induced errors.

Construction OTDR – automated multi-ber testing

Added Value

•

To further increase the value of your CMA5000a OTDR, it can be
equipped with an integrated power meter, a high output stabilized
light source and integrated Visual Fault Locator (VFL). These

options are integrated into the single slot OTDR module and do not

require an additional module slot like some other solutions. In
addition, all OTDR wavelengths are available as stabilized light
sources reducing the equipment cost and providing a complete
end-to-end loss testing solution.
Whatever your testing needs, our world-class OTDR products are
designed to reduce the time to install, commission and maintain
ber spans.
