EXFO Replacement APC Swap-out Connector for MAX-730D

Replacement APC Swap-Out Connector – EXFO MAX-730D

The Replacement APC Swap-Out Connector for the EXFO MAX-730D OTDR is designed to keep your fibre testing accurate, reliable, and cost-efficient. EXFO’s patented swap-out technology allows technicians to replace worn or damaged connectors directly in the field without sending the OTDR to a service centre, significantly reducing downtime and ownership costs.

This connector ensures consistent dynamic range, optimal ORL performance, and reliable dead zone performance, with no additional loss beyond a standard APC connector. By using an onboard diagnostic tool, you can check connector health and replace only when required, ensuring maximum efficiency and extended OTDR performance.

Key Features:

• Field-replaceable design – Swap worn or damaged connectors without sending the OTDR for service

• Maintains performance – No compromise on dynamic range, ORL, or dead zone performance

• Low insertion loss – ~0.25 dB, equivalent to standard APC connectors
