Anritsu Enhances its CMA 3000 All-in-one Field Tester with SDH Testing up to STM-16
- "All-round Easy-to-use Test Tool for the Daily Operation Accelerates Access Network Trouble Resolution" -
COPENHAGEN, DENMARK - June 26, 2008 - Anritsu A/S, a subsidiary of Anritsu Corporation, a global provider of operational support solutions for advanced and converged networks, announced today the availability of a new SDH STM-1/-4/-16 test option for the all-round and easy-to-use CMA 3000 field tester.
The new SDH option allows both active testing with one transmitter and one receiver and simultaneous bi-directional monitoring of SDH lines with two receivers up to STM-16 speeds. This makes CMA 3000 the ideal instrument for both in- and out-of-service transmission-quality measurements.
With this operators and equipment manufacturers can now quickly test and measure access network communication lines based on SDH transmission. Further options support testing of Ethernet, VoIP, E3 and V-series interface lines, which together with the powerful E1 test capabilities for the basic CMA 3000 makes it a very versatile test solution.
Thanks to the bidirectional monitoring capability the user can quickly verify that both sides of the SDH line are working properly at rates up to STM-16 with the new option for the CMA 3000. For out-of-service installation and commissioning testing of SDH links the CMA 3000 provides powerful statistical measurements that can be documented with professional reports.
As you can combine SDH testing with Ethernet, VoIP and E1/E3 testing in one self-contained unit, the field technician is well equipped to solve the problems in the access network.
"SDH is widely used in today's access networks and speeds up to STM-16 are common." said Ole Soerensen, Product Manager, Anritsu A/S. "However these years many operators are moving to Ethernet based networks. Therefore it is important for field technicians installing and maintaining both types of networks to have a universal tool like the CMA 3000 to test SDH and Ethernet together with other technologies they have to take care of."
CMA 3000 SDH options highlights:
o Bi-directional monitoring of SDH lines up to STM-16
o Active out-of-service testing of SDH lines up to STM-16
o Easy to use operation with intuitive setup pages on the large color screen
