The Handheld OTDR with Proven Performance

The MaxTester 700D Series builds on the proven tablet-inspired, lightweight and rugged OTDR MaxTester platform.

The familiar 7-inch, outdoor-enhanced touchscreen continues to deliver an unprecedented user experience with its intuitive Windows-like GUI ensures a fast learning curve.

The OTDR environment offers icon-based functions, instant boot-up, automatic macrobend finders as well as improved auto and real-time modes.

The MaxTester 700D Series is a line of genuine high-performance OTDRs from the world’s leading manufacturer.

It delivers EXFO’s tried and true OTDR quality and accuracy along with the best optical performance for right-first-time results, every time.

The amazing 12-hour battery life will never let a technician down, and the plug-and-play hardware options, like the VFL, power meter and USB tools, make every technician’s job easier.

Most importantly, the MaxTester 700D Series comes with the intelligent Optical Link Mapper (iOLM), an intelligent OTDR-based application.

This advanced software turns even the most complex trace analysis into a simple, one‑touch task.

Ultimately, the MaxTester 700D Series is small enough to fit in your hand and big enough to fit all your needs!

Entry-Level Solution Designed for All Your Testing Needs

The MaxTester 730D PON/metro OTDR is optimised to test through optical splitters up to 1×128, ensuring complete end-to-end FTTH characterisation.

Plus, its high dynamic range makes it suitable for metro P2P testing.

The 1650-nm, out-of-band, live testing capabilities enable efficient troubleshooting of active networks without impacting the signal of other clients.

Swap Out Connector

The MaxTester 700D OTDR Series comes with a Swap-Out connector which can easily be changed, as and when needed, without having to send the test unit to a service centre. This ensures optimal performance over time without undue maintenance costs and downtime.

The OTDR’s optical connector health can be checked with an onboard diagnostic tool to replace the connector only when necessary.

Secure Your Investment Against Theft

Protected instruments have no value on the black market making them completely unappealing to thieves. With our security management option, administrators can define and load a tamper-proof security profile on the MaxTester, displaying a property message on the home screen and securing it with a user password (permanent or renewable).

Icon Based Mapping

Linear view (included with all EXFO OTDRs)

Available on Exfo OTDRs since 2006, the linear view simplifies the reading of an OTDR trace by displaying icons in a linear way for each wavelength.

This view converts the graph data points obtained from a traditional single pulse trace into reflective, non-reflective or splitter icons.

With applied pass/fail thresholds, it becomes easier to pinpoint faults on your link.

This improved linear view offers you the flexibility to display both the OTDR graph and its linear view without having to perform a toggle to analyse your fibre link.

Although this linear view simplifies OTDR interpretation of a single pulse-width trace, the user must still set the OTDR parameters.

In addition, multiple traces must often be performed in order to fully characterise the fibre links.
