COMWAY MAX-600-M4 — The Ultimate 4-Wavelength SM/MM QUAD OTDR
The COMWAY MAX-600-M4 is a unique 4-wavelength SM/MM QUAD OTDR that combines single-mode (1310/1550nm) and multimode (850/1300nm) testing in a single handheld device. Whether you're commissioning a modern SM FTTH network or testing legacy MM fiber in enterprise or campus environments, the MAX-600-M4 eliminates the need for two separate OTDRs — saving cost, weight, and complexity in the field.

💡 Why Choose the MAX-600-M4?
For contractors and network engineers who work across both SM and MM fiber environments, the MAX-600-M4 is the only OTDR you need — replacing two separate instruments with one powerful, portable device.
✅ FAQ
Q1: What makes the COMWAY MAX-600-M4 a "QUAD OTDR"?
A: The MAX-600-M4 tests at four wavelengths — 850nm and 1300nm for multimode (MM)
fiber, and 1310nm and 1550nm for single-mode (SM) fiber — making it a complete
SM/MM OTDR solution in a single handheld device.
Q2: Who needs a SM/MM QUAD OTDR like the MAX-600-M4?
A: The MAX-600-M4 is ideal for contractors and network engineers who work on both
modern SM FTTH networks and legacy MM fiber in enterprise, campus, or data center
environments — eliminating the need to carry two separate OTDRs.
Q3: What is the dynamic range of the MAX-600-M4 for SM and MM fiber?
A: For SM fiber: 36dB at 1310nm and 34dB at 1550nm. For MM fiber: 26dB at both
850nm and 1300nm — covering typical enterprise and campus MM fiber distances.
Q4: Does the MAX-600-M4 include VFL and power meter functions?
A: Yes. The MAX-600-M4 includes built-in VFL, optical power meter (OPM), and light
source, plus an optional fiber inspection probe module.
Q5: How does the MAX-600-M4 compare to the MAX-600-M1 and M3?
A: The M1 is SM-only (1310/1550nm, 32/30dB). The M3 adds live 1625nm for PON testing.
The M4 is the only model that adds MM testing (850/1300nm), making it the most
versatile option for mixed-fiber environments.
Q6: What connector options are available for the MAX-600-M4?
A: Please contact us for available connector options for the MAX-600-M4.
