Telecommunications Analyzer

  • Fractional ( Nx64 ) testing capabilities
  • Plug-in interfaces permit testing to international standards
  • Digital frequency synthesizer with 1ppm accuracy and 1 Hz resolution
  • RS-232 and IEEE-488 interfaces for remote control
  • Tests T1 framed, SLC® 96, unframed, and ESF formats
  • User programmable test setup permits two button automatic setup and testing
  • Allows BERT stress testing with patterns trapped from "Live" traffic to locate pattern sensitive problems
  • Jitter injection and measurement at 1.544 and 2.048 Mbps
  • Simultaneous bit, frame, logic, and bipolar violation measurements
  • 64 K bit trap for bit-by-bit analysis of data stream
  • DDS testing at the DS0 ( 64 Kbps ) level

Phoenix / CTC 5500A SPECIFICATIONS:

Internal Bit Rates

  • Synthesizer Controlled - Accuracy 1ppm from 50 Hz to 13 MHz
  • Tuning Increments
    50Hz - 500kHz @ .1Hz increments
    500kHz - 6.5MHz @ 1Hz increments
    6.5MHz - 13MHz @ 2Hz increments

Clock Sources

  • Internal Clock ( see bit rates above )
  • User Clock ( User supplied TTL clock - 50 bps to 13Mbps )
  • External Clock ( Clock supplied by interface module - TC, RC, XC, etc. )
  • Recovered Clock ( Clock recovered from received bit stream )

Patterns

Mark Space Alt REV 2047 2^20-1 NET55
63 511 SYSY 511 X25 511 2047 2^15-1 QRW
FOX FOX2 2^9-1A USER - 24 - to 16,384-bit repeating pattern

Pattern Sync Criteria: To acquire pattern synchronization:

  • For MARK, SPACE, ALT, FOX, T1SET, T1RESET: = 24 + 32 = 56 bits, SYS511, X25 511 = entire pattern = 4088 bits
  • Pseudorandom = 24 + 32 = 56 bits
  • Loss of pattern synchronization: Adjustable - user may set from 1 bit error to 20000 bit errors in a 100000 bit test block

Injectable Error Rates: Single error inject available on all of the below

Bit Errors 9E-3 to 1E-9 CRC 9E-3 to 1E-7
BPVs 9E-3 to 1E-7 F-Bit 9E-3 to 1E-7
S-Bit 9E-3 to 1E-7 Bit errors in live traffic - 9E-3 to 1E-7
