Abstract

A cell site test tool provides field technicians with resources to support multiple aspects of cell site testing. The cell site test tool includes multiple, integrated and removably connectable modules such as a base module, a user interface module, and a battery module. Additional modules include a CPRI module to provide Common Public Radio Interface testing, an OTDR module to provide dedicated Optical Time-Domain Reflectometer testing, a CAA module to provide Cable Antenna Analysis testing, a fiber inspection module to visually inspect optical fiber, and an SA/CPRI module to provide Radio Frequency over Common Public Radio Interface testing.
