The AQ1200 Multi Field Tester OTDR is a compact and lightweight handheld OTDR optimized for the installation and maintenance of optical fiber cables. Designed with ease of use in mind to simplify field testing, improve work efficiency and ensure qualify results. Seven models are offered, each with unique wavelength(s) based on their specific application.
Reduced energy, emission of CO2, NOX and SOX about 40% compared to the previous model. |
Product Lineup
AQ1200A | 1310/1550 nm | Standard model with the same wavelengths used for communication services. Applicable for installation and maintenance |
AQ1200B | 1625 nm | Models with a wavelength dedicated for maintenance of live fibers. A built-in cut filter isolates the maintenance wavelength from the communication wavelength in order to perform accurate measurements in live networks. |
AQ1200C | 1650 nm | |
AQ1200E | 1310/1550, 1625 nm | These tri-wavelength models has two ports. One port offers the communication wavelengths while the other port is dedicated for the maintenance wavelength. Thus this model is ideal for use in both installation and maintenance applications. |
AQ1205A | 1310/1550 nm | This High dynamic range model can accurately measure the trace even after the splitter in a PON system.Thus this standard wavelength model is highly suited for high port count PON networks with up to 64 ports splitters. |
AQ1205E | 1310/1550, 1625 nm | These tri-wavelength models offers high dynamic range and has two ports. One port offers the communication wavelengths while the other port is dedicated for the maintenance wavelength. Thus this model is ideal for use in both installation and maintenance applications. The high dynamic range feature can accurately measure the trace even after the splitter in a PON system. Thus this is highly suited for high port count PON networks with up to 64 ports splitters. |
AQ1205F | 1310/1550, 1650 nm |
PON Measurement Capability
In Passive Optical Network (PON) System used in FTTH (Fiber To The Home) it is important to quickly and correctly find a fault in the drop cable that is installed after the splitter. The AQ1200 MFTOTDR's PON measurement mode (*) is a mode optimized for the measurement of PON with a high-port-count optical splitter and can ensure a quality waveform even if there is a big loss of optical splitter in the line. With a short dead zone, the AQ1200 can distinguish connectors placed as closely as 0.75 m in FTTx, home or office networks.

Event Mapper Function
The Event Mapper is a new function which automatically detects and characterizes events in the fiber under test. In a few seconds, events are displayed on the screen as easily recognizable icons together with their data. The position in the fiber of the detected event is clearly shown in the upper part of the display.
Data Analysis and Report Creation Tool
- AQ7932 OTDR Emulation Software (Sold Separately)
The AQ7932 is an application software that performs analysis of trace data measured by the AQ1200 MFT-OTDR and creates reports on a PC. The report creation wizard function makes this task simple. AQ1200 MFT-OTDR data can be easily loaded onto a PC using USB memory or storage function.
(The AQ1200 MFT-OTDR is supported from software version 4.1.Please make sure of the version information before use.)- Trace Analysis
You can edit event search conditions, approximate curve line secngs, and other analysis conditions, and repeat the analysis. Operation is also easy. Simply click the function icon. - Variety of Analysis Functions
Display up to eight traces on screen, and perform a variety of analyses including multitrace analysis and differential trace analysis for comparing recent waveforms with old ones, and use the 2 way trace analysis function for analyzing average values of data measured from both ends of optical fiber. - Creating Reports
You can compile traces and measured values of trace files and creates a report.
Reports can be created easily by just following the step-by-step instructions in the report wizard and saved in Excel or CSV format.- Functionality
