This unit
The Anritsu MW9076K is a field-portable Optical Time Domain Reflectometer engineered for high-resolution fiber fault detection and characterization in telecommunications and enterprise network installations. Operating across 850 nm and 1300 nm wavelengths on graded-index multimode fiber, the instrument delivers 5 cm spatial resolution with a 7 m dead zone and dynamic range up to 25 dB. Full-automatic measurement completes in 10 seconds, with real-time sweep capability at 0.15 s and comprehensive measurement modes supporting total loss, interval loss, cable length, splice loss, and return loss quantification across up to 99 detected events.
The MW9076K incorporates dual-wavelength OTDR functionality for chromatic dispersion measurement with ±0.05 ps/(nm·km) reproducibility and 30 dB dynamic range over 25 km fiber spans.

Anritsu MW9076K — Repair & Calibration Service
Aumictech offers NIST-traceable calibration and repair for the Anritsu MW9076K. Calibration covers distance accuracy verified against a calibrated fiber length reference, event loss measurement accuracy at splice and connector events, dead zone (event and attenuation) at rated pulse width, dynamic range verification at 1310 nm and 1550 nm, backscatter coefficient calibration, and return loss measurement accuracy. All calibrations ship with a NIST-traceable certificate. Turnaround is typically 1–3 business days after receipt.
Common Anritsu MW9076K faults: optical port connector damage or contamination, battery failure, display damage from field use, module failure on FTB or MTS platforms, calibration drift. Most field OTDRs fail due to physical damage. On modular platforms (EXFO FTB, Viavi MTS), individual module failures are serviced without replacing the entire mainframe. Optical port cleaning resolves many apparent measurement faults before mechanical repair is needed.
