Description

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 2 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!
