1 Introducing the MAX-700
The MAX-700 allows you to characterize a fiber-optic span, usually optical
fiber sections joined by splices and connectors. The optical time domain
reflectometer (OTDR) provides an inside view of the fiber, and can
calculate fiber length, attenuation, breaks, total return loss, and splice,
connector and total losses.
Note: In this documentation, the words “tap” and “double-tap” (related to the
use of a touchscreen) replace the words “click” and “double-click”.
