Attenuators

Attenuators for Optical and BERT measurements

Cable, Antenna and Spectrum Analyzers

Our range of Cable, Antenna and Spectrum Analyzers are second to none in terms of price, performance and ease of use.

CD, PMD and OSA

For testing Chromatic Dispersion in optical fibres the CMA 5000 CD/OTDR measures the chromatic dispersion, dispersion slope, and the zero-dispersion wavelength of any fiber type to allow optimized compensation. The CMA5000 Polarization Mode Dispersion (PMD) application characterizes the data rate capability of each fiber, quickly identifying which fibers are capable of providing higher data rates. For Optical Spectrum Analysis in the field the CMA5000 OSA400 and OSA425 offer highest performance in a field instrument. OSA 425 is the optimized cost OSA and OSA 400 gives the highest performance for your WDM system and provides lab specifications in a rugged field module. With best in class ORR, this OSA can compute OSNR measurements with very high accuracy. The unique flat top filter can drop signal up to 40Gb/s to do transport analysis. For component OSA measurements the MS9710C is best choice. This analyzer has the dynamic range, reception sensitivity and sweep speed required for measuring the transmission characteristics of passive elements such as optical isolators, as well as NF/Gain of optical fiber amplifier systems particularly in the WDM band.

Electronic and Optical Design Service

Mantaro Networks provides a full range of product development services to high technology clients. Highly talented professional engineers with a history of successful product development and innovative design experience are at your service to complete exisiting work or add resources to your current work load.

FTTH Fibre To the Home

Here you will find test equipment and components suitable for fibre to the home (FTTH) and fibre to the premises (FTTP) deployment. As the demand for bandwidth increases beyond the capability of copper networks, fibre deployment has become essential to deliver the required data rates of HDTV and superfast broadband. In the future, super HDTV and 3D TV will push the bandwidth needs further. What bandwidth rates will be reaching our homes in 5 years time? 100Mbit for sure but people are talking about 1Gigabit, even 10Gigabit.Whatever it will be, it will be on fibre. In this area you will find the products you will need to deploy our new fibre networks.

Monitoring Systems

If you are deploying Next Generation Fibre Networks, you need to find faults quickly and easily with minimum cost. You can radically reduce running costs by deploying a PON or Remote Fiber Test System. These offer fibre network monitoring at the physical layer to speed up fault finding, service restoration and enable preventative maintenance.

We have two solutions for fibre monitoring:

The first is the Mechanized Fibre Test System (MFTS) from InLight Telecom designed to monitor point to point links and crucially the latest deployment of Passive Optical Networks - PONs used for Fiber To The Home and other FTTx networks that use optical splitters.

The second is the Unified Monitoring System from Lancier Monitoring that combines monitoring of fibre cables with monitoring of copper cables and Outside Plant facilities.

Optical Fault Locators

The Optical Fault Locator is a small easy to use instrument that finds the distance to faults and events in optical fibre cables. Optical Fault Locators use Optical Time Domain Reflectometry techniques and are ideal for fibre maintenance, and FTTx or short distance installations.

Optical Sources, Meters and Test Sets

We offer a range of loss test equipment suitable for any application from simple power meters, sources, fibre identifiers and visual fault locators to automated loss sets and return loss sets. We have equipment suitable for long range fibres, FTTx and sources and meters suitable for GigE and 10GigE testing.

OTDRs and Fault Locators

We offer a range of Optical Time Domain Reflectometers (OTDRs) suitable for any application. For long distance networks we offer the CMA5000 OTDR and CMA4500 OTDR and for testing short or access spans the MT9080 series OTDRs are the best choice. We also provide an OTDR on a PC card if you are looking to build your own OTDR or test system. The OTDR products offer event dead zones as low as 1 metre and attenuation deadzones as low as 8 metres so they are ideal for isolating faults that are close together.

Patchcords and Launch Cables

Patchcords, launch cables and test leads for implementation and testing your fibre network.

RF Power Meters and Signal Generators

High bandwidth and sample rate RF Meters -ideal for accurate peak measurements on RADAR, Radio Navigation and Radio Location systems. Anritsu MG3641A and MG3642A Signal Generators meet the need for higher signal purity at higher frequencies.

SDH, SONET, GigE and Digital Test

A range of high performance SDH, SONET, GigE and Digital Test equipment including the MP1026A portable Eye Pattern Analyzer, MD1230/MP1590 Family of SDH SONET and GigE testers, The CMA3000 all in one data/transmission tester and the CMA5000 modular test platform.

Splicing

The foremost splicing machines and cleaving tools like the FSM-60S core alignment splicer, the FSM-11S splicemate mini splicer and the CT-30 and CI-03B cleaving tools offer superb performance and reliability.

Training

We provide training in fibre optics testing, splicing, general fibre optic technologies and understanding data communications. If you need a specific course covering a particular area of expertise we can develop or tailor courses to suit your needs. Listed below are the current ready-made courses.

Tunable Laser Sources

Tunics laser sources have three configurations: Tunics Reference is the new benchmark in tunable laser sources for test applications offering the best specifications for all types of WDM measurements Tunics Plus is a bench-top external cavity laser that uses an active control to ensure a perfect mode-hop-free operation over its full 150 nm wavelength tuning range Tunics Purity is a bench-top tunable external-cavity laser diode with full-power ASE-noise-free emission. OSICS is an 8 slot test system into which ASE, DFB, ECL and EDFA modules can be fitted. Xtract is an ideal tool for Channel Selection and Extraction from DWDM Signals
