T3AS Compact Administration Shelf -Datasheet (DS.SAS.TM.AE.PDF, 0.58 MB)
In-line remote testing and monitoring
The T3AS is an integrated test and performance monitoring system that provides DS3/DS1 continuous, non-intrusive monitoring and DS3/1/0 testing at sites where digital cross-connect systems (DCS) are not located.
Highlights
- New compact administration shelf provides flexibility and cost effectiveness with several new features.
- Rapid, accurate fault sectionalization at network boundaries.
- Physical and logical layer testing in one platform.
- High-speed voice and data testing without disrupting service.
- Continuous performance monitoring for DS3 and DS1 services.
- Hitless testing for DS1, FT1, DS0, and subrate circuits from a DS1 or DS3 access point.
Applications
- Troubleshooting DS3/1/0 circuits at LEC/IXC handoffs.
- Network boundary sectionalization using the JDSU Remote Module and Sectionalizer Fault Isolation Software.
- Remote ATM and frame relay testing.
- Distributed architecture at central offices and colocation cages.
- Integrated frame relay testing using the Acterna Frame Sentry Module.
Key Features
- Extensive suite for DS3, DS1, nxDS0, DS0, HCDS, VF, and DDS testing.
- Remote, hitless access for ATM/IP.
- Intrusive and non-intrusive testing.
- GR-834 TL-1 compliant interface integrates with NetAnalyst Test Management Software or a third-party test management OSS.
- ANSI T1.403 compliant Performance Report Messages (PRMs) and ANSI T1.231 Supplemental PRMs (SPRMs).
