“Smallest” 10GbE multi-function field tester

The MTS-6000A multi-services application module is the industry’s most compact 10GbE multi-function tester for the installation and maintenance of carrier Ethernet and IP services. Testing high-bandwidth services like IPTV has become a requirement beyond the access network because of the convergence of cost-effective carrier Ethernet networks and high-bandwidth triple-play services. This convergence is complicated by the development and deployment of a number of new Ethernet technologies such as Provider Backbone Bridge Transport (PBT), requiring significant qualification during the design and deployment phase to ensure QoS of business and residential triple-play services.

Moreover, the multifunction capabilities of the MTS-6000A enables a quick return on capital investment, reduces mean time to repair, and simplifies testing – which reduces operational expenses. With field applications for servicing metro core telecom networks, wireless/cable switch centers and backhaul networks, government telecommunications and network equipment manufacturer field installation and support groups, the multi-services application module is the latest innovation for the MTS family of test solutions. The MTS product line is compatible with thousands of field-proven units deployed worldwide by every major telecommunications network operator. It enables easy migration to new network technologies while continuing to reduce expenses.

Other features include 10GbE, IP video, TCP/UDP, FTP test and support for Ethernet and SONET/SDH up to 10GbE/10G on the same physical port. A powerful user interface helps the technician quickly set up and evaluate tests as well as troubleshoot problems.
