Overview

The MU909060A Gigabit Ethernet Modules fit the battery-powered Anritsu Network Master MT9090A mainframe. With a module installed, the instrument tests Gigabit Ethernet links during installation and maintenance and helps troubleshoot Ethernet communication lines. It provides bandwidth verification, connectivity testing and service availability verification.

The family has three models with different port configurations. The MU909060A1 has one SFP slot and one RJ-45 port, the MU909060A2 has two RJ-45 ports, and the MU909060A3 has two SFP slots. The two ports can be used at the same time, which shortens installation work across multiple ports and allows pass-through and bidirectional monitoring.

Field operation

The instrument is ready to measure in about 15 seconds and runs for up to 3 hours on a single charge, depending on configuration and setup. It has no fans or vents, and a protector that absorbs shock is supplied as standard. A 4.3-inch wide-screen color display shows results, and a Test Automator together with PASS/FAIL indicators guides users through test sequences. Setups can be stored and copied to other instruments over USB.

Test functions

The modules generate traffic for installation, commissioning and QoS verification, including VLAN-tagged traffic. They also provide BER testing, performance and QoS statistics, service disruption time measurement, and ping and traceroute tests. Optional software adds RFC 2544 testing (including end-to-end testing between two units), ITU-T Y.1564 multi-service testing, Multistream, Stacked VLAN, MPLS, Channel Stats and a Remote GUI that runs in a web browser.
