CellAdvisor Cable and Antenna Analyzers JD723C, JD724C, JD725C, JD726C

CellAdvisor Cable and Antenna Analyzer is a rugged, easy-to-use, all-in-one tool with everything you need for cell site installation.

CellAdvisor Cable and Antenna Analyzers provide integrated solutions for line sweep measurement, RF / optical power measurements, and fiber inspection, in a lightweight instrument ideal for cell site installation.

The majority of problems in wireless networks occur at the base station infrastructure, composed of the antenna system, cables, and connectors and they are typically related to the cable feed-line (coax or fiber). Contamination in fiber connectors is the most common problem associated with Fiber. All wireless networks with fiber based feed-lines require the verification of both RF and Fiber. Until now multiple instruments were used for these tests, one for RF and another for Fiber, and the JD720C series cable and antenna analyzer is the first cable and antenna analyzer that provides an integrated solution for fiber and coax, being the most versatile and optimal instrument to properly service and install cell sites.

Care Support Plans

Product Group	Recommend Plan	Bronze	Silver	Maxcare	Why Calibrate?
CellAdvisor JD72xC	Silver-5				Cable & Antenna analyzers are measuring frequencies which need to be accurate to meet the specifications. Open/short load calibration must be done prior to measuring by customer. Factory standards to ensure accuracy VIAVI Calibrates to TL9000 factory standards to ensure your instrument is certified to measure accurately, as it did when it came off the factory line. Instruments that are out of calibration will produce unreliable measurements and can create false passing or false failing test results that often cause your team repeat work. We maintain, polish and clean all fiber connectors, fix pigtail connections that are internal to the product to ensure all ports stay in good working order and upgrade software / firmware to the latest approved release to enable enhancements. VIAVI Care Plans are the most cost-effective way to plan for calibration with a low, discounted price at the time of instrument purchase, however fixed rate calibration can be purchased at a later date on a separate purchase order. Ensure accurate measurements that meet calibration and service level agreements, ISO and TL standards for network test procedures. Ensure all test transmission signals work properly to avoid issues such as not reaching full line rate testing rate required to validate service bandwidth, speed and quality of service (QoS). Maintain ports and connectors to keep test transmissions working properly and to extend the life of the instrument. For example, if optical connectors and, lasers are bad or electrical/RF interface ports are loose after years of connection cycles, OTDR, TDR, and Radio Frequency measurements will not work properly. When doing construction, installation and activation work that must be certified, all network components typically must be tested with a certified, calibrated instrument to preserve warranty from manufacturer, such as fiber optic cable manufactures. Accurate RF frequencies and optical wavelengths are critical to meet measurement specifications. If using these to validate network elements, power levels, transmission rates, out of specification tools will prevent validation of network elements and signals. Why calibrate this product? Repeat truck rolls due to repeated measurements Erroneous measurements might result in the incorrect network settings. Adds time to troubleshooting because the real issue it is not possible to isolate the real issue. What are the most common implications of these issues to the business? Uncalibrated tools produce unreliable measurement results that can't be certified to specifications and may violate service level agreements or ISO/TL9000 standards with your customers and their network equipment vendors. QoS certification may be inaccurate and generate a repeat test need. Contractors are often not compensated or could be delisted as an approved service supplier due to incorrect results. Full manufacturer warranty (20-30 years) from cable suppliers (e.g. Corning, CommScope, Belden, ect.) will only be granted if the installation is certified with a calibrated instrument, thus the network owner is motivated to comply with correct installation certification procedures to retain and enforce the warranty on expensive cabling and optical network elements, etc. Common Business impacts include: Lost revenue, customer complaints and increased costs: Most network operators track and audit repeat work done by sub-contractors and often there is a billing dispute in these cases. Contractors with high rates of inaccurate test results are usually hired for less or not at all when not meeting SLA agreements or quality metrics. For Network Operators, repeat service quality issues with customers often causes added cost, customer dissatisfaction and loss of business. Example: Let's look at OTN/SONET/SDH/E1/T1 and various FTTX, DOCIS and xDSL measurements. It is critical to reach full line rate (1G, 10G, 40G, 100G) to test service performance and service error rates. If the uncalibrated tester can not reach full line rate during testing, a customer may be left with suboptimal performance that will quickly create complaints or alternatively, the technician could end up chasing phantom network problems that do not exist. What are the common issues?
