The new Noyes M100 OTDR is the word’s first handheld, singlemode and multimode, four wavelength Optical Time Domain Reflectometer with integrated VFL (visual fault locator). Using “PDA” technology the M100 reaches a new level of value and portability. By combining a simple user interface with the features of a mini-OTDR in a “micro” package, the M100 is ideal for premises network Tier 2 fiber link certification and fault-location measurements including: connection loss and reflectance, splice loss, and fiber loss slope (attenuation rate). The M100 is also suited for broadband service providers looking for a highly portable OTDR to document and trouble-shoot fiber links in their access and FTTx (fiber to the
home/curb/office) networks.

features
• Hand-held size and < 2.7 lb (1.2 kg)
• 850/1300/1310/1550 nm
• Integrated Visual Fault Locator (650 nm)
• Tool-free, switchable adapters
(ST/SC/FC)
• Bellcore (GR-196) file format
• Compact Flash™ memory card
• PC software for trace analysis and printing
• TFT color display Optical Time Domain Reflectometer with integrated VFL (visual fault locator).

The M600 is a full-featured mini-OTDR designed to accept both multimode (850/ 1300nm) and single-mode (1310/1550nm) modules for testing flexibility. Modules are user installable. All M600 models include: a 7.7-inch color LCD display, CompactFlash™ drive and memory card capable of storing up to 1,500 traces, 3.5-inch floppy disk drive, full-sized keyboard, and soft carry case. Pulse width and range can be set automatically for maximum ease-of-use, or manually for maximum flexibility.

features
• Available multimode (850/1300 nm),
single-mode (1310/1550 nm), or
four-wavelength configurations
• Automatic or manual set up
• Real-time testing
• Large, backlit, color display
• Keyboard with full-sized keys for fast text

OTDRs require launch and receive test cables to measure the end-to-end loss of optical fiber links. A
launch cable, which connects the OTDR to the link under test, reveals the insertion loss and reflectance of the near-end connection. A receive cable, which is connected to the far-end of the link, reveals the insertion loss and reflectance of the far-end connection. Noyes OTDR test cables are available in two forms. Fiber Rings, which provide 150 m of 50 µm, 62.5 µm, or singlemode fiber in a compact, lightweight ring, are ideal for testing optical fiber links (up to about 2 km) in premises networks. Fiber Boxes, which are available in standard lengths up to 1 km, are ideal for testing singlemode fiber spans (up to 50 km or longer) in Telco and Broadband networks. Please call or email for information about other length OTDR fiber boxes and Network Simulators, which are fiber boxes with customer-specified splices, connections, or other events.

NS1/ NS2 fiber optic network simulators are custom-designed “fiber boxes” intended to
duplicate installed fiber optic facilities. Training schools, laboratory bench design, or field
troubleshooting are just few of the many applications for these portable units.

features
• User-specified fiber type
• Custom designed lengths
• Mechanical or fusion splices available
