Together with a single 990 CopperPro, Terminator provides VF and WB terminations and tones for terminated transmission testing. It also supports the 990DSL's composite tone generation capability for high-speed ADSL, special services, and wideband longitudinal balance tests.
The bottom line? By reducing failure frequency, repeats and chronic problems, Terminator puts an end to unnecessary dispatches and fines.
Advances in DSL (Digital Subscriber Line) technologies have had a dramatic impact on the availability and deployment of broadband service. High-speed links carrying voice, data and video services can be deployed quickly over existing outside plant copper cable. While some circuits turn up with minimal effort, many suffer problems from the outset. Traditional testing methods will no longer do the job. HDSL2 and HDSL4 don't use repeating signals that can be replicated with BERT and Nyquist tests used in the past. Instead, they use complex TCPAM technology, which requires a different testing procedure.
The 990DSL CopperPro and Terminator feature automatic tests designed specifically to address this problem. CopperPro and Terminator prequalify pairs for HDSL2 or HDSL4 in less than two minutes, and help locate facilities problems that generate errors or cause circuits to fail.
The TN-XBP Battery Pack is designed to significantly expand the operating capacity of the TN2000 and TN2100 Far-End Terminating Devices. The pack consists of a carry case, battery tray and six alkaline C Cell batteries. Slip the Terminator into the case, connect the battery pack to the external power jack, and you’re ready to go.
The Battery Pack enhances Terminator operation in two areas. In normal temperature conditions, it extends battery capacity more than 10 fold (4150 mAH @ 25°C); permitting extended testing times and reducing battery replacements. At -20°C conditions, the Terminator Pack more than doubles battery capacity. The battery pack disconnects the Terminator’s internal battery, allowing it to function as a back-up. The TN-XBP includes an insulated case to protect the batteries in low temperature conditions, a battery tray, six alkaline C cell batteries and a fused power cable.
- Loop terminations and VF / WB single tones for testing on either of two pairs (Pair 1 and 2)
- Bridging / splitting access between Pair 1 and Pair 3 (CO Pair
- Composite VF and WB tones for greatly increased testing speed
- DTMF signaling control on both Pair 1 and Pair 2 (Pair 1 alone, if powered down)
- Signaling and testing on the same pair (either Pair 1 or 2)
- Extremely low-power mode when turned off
- DTMF transceiver switchable via relay to either Pair 1 (default) or Pair 2, or removed from both for a preset time interval whenever its input impedance would affect the 990 CopperPro measurement from the far end (i.e., shorts and grounds, or opens)
- Operable from a standard butt-set, when line powering is present (i.e., idle POTS line)
- DTMF command protocol allows for "Ack / Nack" closed-loop feedback response to control commands, increasing reliability
- Tracing Tone mode (TR metallic 577 Hz signal)
- Powered by a standard, off-the-shelf 9 VDC Alkaline non-rechargeable battery
- Battery cover removable without the use of a tool
- Operates from an external 12-15 VDC power source, such as the AC and DC power cords provided with the 990 CopperPro, automatically disconnecting the internal battery when plugged in
