CMA50 SPECIFICATIONS
Loss Test Sets, Light Sources, Power Meters
Fast, accurate, and easy-to-use, Anritsu’s CMA50 Family helps assure your loss budgets are met without burdening your
operating budget. Available as light sources, power meters, and the all-in-one loss test set, the entire family is designed for
simplicity, efficiency, and reliability. Based on real-life field experiences and backed by Anritsu’s standard three year warranty,
the CMA50 will provide years of use in a variety of applications including FTTx networks, campus LANs, long-haul
telephony, and CATV distribution.
The CMA50 Family makes your measuring experience simple and error free, and includes pass or fail threshold analysis, large
capacity for test results storage, and an Ethernet network testing option. In addition, when equipped with the EZ-Test option,
CMA50 Loss Test Sets will automatically perform bi-directional end-to-end loss measurements at each selected wavelength,
process the results, and present them on both units in just a few seconds.
Delivering the right performance, features and options, the CMA50 is the ideal tool for installation, test, and maintenance of
fiber networks without the increased cost of extra features that don't provide extra benefits. Designed with your needs in mind,
this lightweight, rugged family is built for the most demanding cable installation environments and will provide years of
valuable service.
