Anritsu OTDR
There are many handheld OTDRs on the market that appear to be a good value until they are put into action and the user quickly finds out that they lack the performance needed to install and maintain today’s networks.
The new MU909014/15 μOTDR Module series for the MT9090A Network Master™ platform from Anritsu finally addresses this need by providing all of the features and performance required for installation and maintenance of optical fibres in a compact, modular test set. The MT9090A represents an unmatched level of value and ease of use, while not compromising performance. Data sampling of 2 centimetres, dead zones of 0.8-meter and dynamic range up to 38 dB ensure accurate and complete fiber evaluation of any network type – premise to access, metro to core…including PON-based FTTx networks featuring up to a 1 × 64 split.
New FieldSENSE 60
A new FieldSENSE Personal RF monitor, the FieldSENSE 60, is now available from Maser Communications alongside the popular FieldSENSE 2.0 with its proven track-record of ensuring on-site employee safety.
The FieldSENSE 60 retains all the benefits of the FieldSENSE 2.0 – compact size & weight, rugged IP64 enclosure and long battery life from two everyday AAA batteries, but it is also 5G ready.
The new FieldSENSE 60 with its increased frequency range of 60GHz also covers all the new 5G Broadcast frequencies.
Frequency range: 50 MHz – 60 GHz
FieldSENSE 2.0
The FieldSENSE 2.0 is the Personal RF Monitors specifically designed for protecting personnel working near broadcast and telecommunications transmitting antennas from EMF/RF overexposure.
The FieldSENSE 2.0 measures both E and H fields spanning from 50MHz to 6 GHz with an isotropic probe architecture. The probe response is shaped to internationally accepted exposure safety limits and is designed for both body worn, handheld or remote monitoring applications.
Frequency range: 50 MHz – 6 GHz
Covers all typical television and FM radio broadcast services amongst others.
E & H Fields Measured
In order to accurately assess a given exposure situation, both H and E fields are measured.
Shaped Response
The exposure limits, such as the FCC (NCRP), SC6 or ICNIRP are ALL shaped over frequency and as such PPE must also have a shaped probe response to accurately measure in accordance with it.
Isotropic
The FieldSENSE 2.0 has a total of 6 orthogonal E & H field probes to ensure that the combination of all sources of radiation from all angles are correctly measured and assessed in accordance with the safety limits.
Data Logging
The FieldSENSE 2.0 now has an advanced E & H field data logger which records all your measurements so that you can access them easily over a USB connection to your PC in the office. You can even view data real-time over the USB connection with the PC application.
Designed for Tower Climbers – It Could Save Your Life
Fall-Detect and Alarm
In-built fall detection system will sound an alarm should you accidentally fall. This will attract the attention of colleagues to immediately initiate rescue actions.
Harness Fastening
Special strap & buckle system for fastening your device to your climbers harness ensures easy access to it. Specifically designed to keep it away from areas which are either heavily utilised or impede easy climbing.
Wrist Strap
Easily adjustable wrist strap ensures you never accidentally drop your device when working at heights.
“Grippy” Design

RF Drive and Walk Test Solutions
Radio Design Teams, and Telecom Service Companies responsible for IBS or Outdoor Radio path Modelling, Measurements and Performance Enhancement seek a simple but accurate tool to measure the RF signal level at certain frequencies/channels while still have the ability to log, draw, process such measurement along a complete test mission whatever its an In-building Walk-Test or Outdoor Drive-Test. Simplicity here implies a cost effective, small size, concise, easy-to-use, and efficient RF Receiver that’s engineered to address that niche need to accomplish the mission faster and in a more physically convenient setup without involving legacy complex and expensive measurement tools.

In addition to its WRX Handheld family, Consultix extended its portfolio with a miniature pocket-size receivers; the MRX family that addresses the need for small field setup constituting just a pocket receiver supporting a broad range of personal computing devices.
Transmitters
Consultix Provides a family of field proof Test Transmitters designed for In-building Site Modelling and Walk-Tests as well as Outdoor Path model tuning- thanks to its broad range options of RF power amplifiers. The WTX Family offers a test signal ranging from a real WCDMA Modulation to a multi-band and 4 port CW Transmission.
Software
Walk-view is a comprehensive, efficient, and simple-to-use data acquisition S/W tool that turns the WRX together with a PC or tablet into a fully fledged walk test or a drive test system that draws measurements, provides complete archiving of results, and presents it into different meaningful forms exportable to CSV format for further manipulation or representation in tools such as Map Info or iBwave etc. The S/W imports almost any format of layouts; BMP, JPG, PNG, etc., or Google Maps for outdoor tests. The tool allows a simple archiving and categorization of different projects, divided into different sites, sub-missions, down to sessions.
