Redefining Transport Testing
|
|
|
|
Today communication networks are becoming more and more sophisticated as leading network operators install new technologies like OTN, MPLS-TP and Ethernet in their metro and Mobile Backhaul networks as well as CPRI/OBSAI in Mobile Fronthaul networks. In some cases, operators must also support Fibre Channel links, while still keeping legacy technologies like SDH/SONET and PDH/DSn operational. The Network Master Pro MT1000A redefines the direction of future test platforms by bringing these network test requirements to a portable device, making it the ideal tool for field testing.

OTN Testing with Client Signals
The MT1000A is a powerful and full toolset for testing OTN signals. It supports complete Bit Error Rate (BER) tests with bulk signals at the OTN level as well as tests all the way to the Ethernet, CPRI, Fibre Channel and SDH/SONET client signals mapped into the OTN signal.
Easy-to-use
The portable, compact, lightweight MT1000A makes network field testing easy. Service engineers can read and interpret data from the tested network directly on the 9-inch color display with easy-to-understand indications and graphical symbols. And the GUI makes it simple to configure and operate the instrument at its full potential.
Dual Port at All Rates
- Reduced test time by testing two lines simultaneously with one unit
- In-service bi-directional troubleshooting
