Anritsu Portable 400G Network Tester MT1040A

Click2Contact

The Anritsu Network Master Pro MT1040A is a portable 400G network tester for evaluating the transmission quality of networks operating at speeds ranging from 10 Mbps to 400 Gbps. Featuring a compact design, ease of use and broad test capabilities, the MT1040A can be used to efficiently and confidently install, maintain and troubleshoot communications devices, transceivers, cables, networks and data centres up to 400 Gbps.

Directly inserted next-generation QSFP-DD and OSFP multi-rate modules and break-out cables up to 400G with native SFP+/SFP28, QSFP and OSFP interfaces enable the Network Master Pro MT1040A to perform forward error correction (FEC) verification, Bit Error Rate, throughput and latency measurements. These tests verify performance of high-speed network cables and devices; private and distributive networks; access, metro and core network segments; mobile edge computing, and data centre TOR/COR equipment addressing new 5G application services. Communications carriers, network installation and maintenance companies, and back office and data centre personnel can use the tester to ensure the transmission quality of 400G Ethernet, OTN, eCPRI/RoE/CPRI/OBSAI, and Fibre Channel networks and elements.

The Network Master Pro MT1040A has a built-in 400G Ethernet FEC analysis function for quality evaluations of QSFP-DD and OSFP optical modules and 400G devices and equipment. Additionally, the MT1040A can be configured with compatible OTDR modules to simultaneously conduct optical line measurements to troubleshoot optical fibre faults.

Throughput and latency measurements between two remote points using GPS can be achieved by linking dual MT1040A instruments — one as a local and another as a remote. Using this functionality, uplink communications speed can be measured by the local tester while simultaneous and accurate analysis of the downlink communications speed is done by the remote unit.

Designed for today’s installation and maintenance (I&M) environments, the battery-powered MT1040A has a large 9″ touch panel for operability. Measurements are simplified by a built-in remote control over network capability, as well as automatic test functions and multiple pass/fail evaluations that can be performed by pressing a single button.
