ANT-5 SDH Access Tester (Discontinued)

Highlights

• Configurable and upgradeable with a wide range of optical interfaces and SW options, e.g. ATM.
• All interfaces built in: Electrical interfaces for PDH/SDH: T1,E1,E3,DS3,E4, STM-0e/1e; Optical interfaces (option) for SDH/SONET: Single and Dual optics Tx up to 2.5 G, covering: STM-1/OC-3, STM-4/OC-12, and STM-16/OC-48.
• Autoconfig functionality for automatic traffic detection (line rate, structure, mapping).
• PDH Mux/Demux testing down to 64 kbps (E1/E3/E4 and DS1/DS3 Mux/Demux chain).
• ATM test functionality with all supported bit rates and mappings up to Vc4-4c.
• Offline Viewer SW provides impressive result analysis and report generation on any Microsoft Windows-based printer. Generation of instrument configuration for transfer to the unit itself.
• Built-in Ethernet port for extended connectivity, enabling remote operation and results transfer.

Applications

• Installation and commissioning of STM-0e/1/4/16, OC-3/12/48, and E4, DS3, E3, E1, and T1 links.
• Troubleshooting features for easier fault location.
• In-service and out-of-service testing with in-line monitor and intrusive thru mode functionality. Enables interruption free service monitoring via ECL NRZ Rx ports (STM-n).
• ATM service verification: Testing of ATM carried over PDH, SDH, and SONET.
• 3G/UMTS network installation and commissioning with Channel Explorer functionality detecting active VCI/VPIs.
• Radio link adjustments by repetitive BERT functionality.

Key Features

• Bit Error Rate testing.
• Performance analysis according to international standards: G.821, G.826, G.828, G.829, M.2100,M.2101 and ANSI.
• APS-measurement including Service Disruption.
• Round Trip Delay measurement.
• Pointer generation and analysis.
• Overhead generation and analysis including path trace [in Hex and clear text format (interpreter)].
• TCM generation and analysis.
• K-Byte generation, analysis and capture.
