Here’s a handy Quick Card – HST3000 Time Domain Reflectometer (TDR) for using the TDR on the HST-3000 to identify and locate fault conditions such as load coils, opens, shorts, wet sections, and bridged taps and low-resistance faults (across tip and ring)

“I can only endorse how effective the MTS-6000A MSAM using the RFC-6349 testing has been for my team. There is a real opportunity for the MTS-6000A MSAM to further enhance our testing capabilities with its multifunction and modular platforms. I have no doubt this will ultimately improve our network reliability and customer satisfaction.”
— Keith Vicary, Field Engineering Manager, TalkTalk Group

A new firmware version is available for the DSAM (XT and non-XT versions) that provides support for StrataSync asset management software and also offers other updates. The firmware version is 4.3 for XT hardware and 3.8 for non-XT hardware.
The new firmware can be found under Firmware Update on the Asset homepage in StrataSync. Contact your system administrator if you have any problems.
The firmware will also be available in late June via the DSAM product page on jdsu.com.
Watch the recorded webinar to learn how the JDSU T-BERD®/MTS platform can improve FTTA deployment reliability as well as reduce repair time with CPRI and OBSAI testing.
JDSU recommends a robust testing methodology including bit-error rate testing (BERT) and delay testing during installation and protocol-aware monitoring capability to identify alarms during repair.
This presentation includes a live demonstration of the T-BERD/MTS CPRI application.
Installing CPRI and OBSAI Links Between an RE and REC
Our experience working with large service providers in Asia and North America shows that ensuring a quality customer experience requires verifying the link between the radio equipment (RE) and radio equipment controllers (REC). These links comprise dark fiber, a DWDM network, or CPRI over OTN. Eliminating dropped calls because of missed handoffs or errors in baseband processing and poor data throughput caused by TCP packet retransmissions requires verifying Layer 1 and 2 parameters, like error-free transmission and delay.
