Description
Overview
The EXFO MaxTester 715B OTDR is a singlemode OTDR with integrated iOLM (intelligent Optical Link Mapper) capability, designed for fiber contractors, OSP technicians, and telecom operators who need a field-portable platform for FTTx deployment, link certification, and network troubleshooting. It operates at 1310 and 1550 nm with a 30 dB dynamic range at 1310 nm, a 1 m event dead zone, and an Android-based tablet interface with Wi-Fi and LAN connectivity for direct report transfer. This Grade B unit from OMIWAA provides access to a fully operational MaxTester 715B — with both OTDR and iOLM options active — at a substantially lower cost than new, with all functions verified prior to listing.

Condition Report
This unit is graded B — Good. It has been fully tested and confirmed operational across all active functions including OTDR and iOLM. Cosmetic wear on the instrument itself is light and consistent with normal professional field use. The carrying bag shows more significant external wear but remains fully functional for transport and protection. No electronic faults or functional issues were identified during inspection. Buyers are advised to review the provided photographs to assess the cosmetic condition of both the unit and the bag prior to purchase.

Why Buy From Omiwaa
OMIWAA physically receives, inspects, grades, photographs, and documents every unit before it is listed for sale. This EXFO MaxTester 715B was handled directly by OMIWAA — it was not sourced through a broker, listed on consignment, or drop-shipped from a third party. OMIWAA owns and ships every item in its inventory, and condition grading is based on direct physical assessment, not seller-reported information.
Common Use Cases
The EXFO MaxTester 715B is used across a range of professional fiber optic testing applications where dual-wavelength OTDR measurement and automated link analysis are required in the field.
- FTTx and PON network qualification including splice loss measurement, connector reflectance characterization, and end-to-end link loss verification on access fiber infrastructure
- Fiber backbone testing and link certification on metro and long-haul singlemode routes requiring dynamic range up to 30 dB and distance coverage to 160 km
- Automated link diagnostics using iOLM for element-by-element pass/fail reporting on newly deployed or maintained fiber links
- Field reporting and documentation using Wi-Fi or LAN transfer to EXFO FastReporter for acceptance testing handover and maintenance records
