The growth of ADSL services within the
telecommunications industry has created a need
for test equipment that can handle trouble
tickets on both POTS and ADSL lines. The TS1200
ADSL/POTS Test Set from Fluke Networks does just
that. It offers the very best in DataSafe™ POTS
testing, combined with the ability to test and
troubleshoot ADSL lines – all in a truly rugged
case. The TS1200 Test Set allows technicians to
test ADSL while talking on the POTS frequencies
of a line. It also allows off-hook testing of
POTS lines without disrupting data services. As
the result, trouble tickets are cleared rather
than created.
And, it reduces the need for separate handheld
testers as the TS1200 Test Set can test both
POTS and ADSL. Easy-to-use menu screens,
including a "Home" button that allows access to
all major testing modes and configurations. This
makes the TS1200 test set the perfect tester for
the inexperienced technician. You can validate
service activation; isolate failures between the
customer premises and the service provider, and
measure throughput, line capacity, and other
parameters – all in one test.
The backlit LCD screen displays 8 lines of text
and can plot a bits-per-bin graph of test
results. You can save up to five results to
download and print from a PC. Use the "auto
test" function to take a snapshot of the ADSL
line, or you can use the "manual" test function
to monitor line conditions for up to 90 minutes.
On-screen icons show volume level, battery and
charging levels, polarity, and Speaker or Mute
button activity. An Alarm Display shows loss of
signal, frame, power, or margin at the near or
far end of the line. With high-voltage
protection, DropSafe™ ruggedness, RainSafe™
usability, and all the standard features of
Fluke Networks butt-in test sets – like PBX
Pause, Speed Dial, Last Number Redial, and Tone
and Pulse dialing – the TS1200 test set is the
essential piece of testing equipment for the
telephone tech in the world of ADSL. The TS1200
also can be outfitted with a load coil detector
which is perfect for central office installation
and verification. |
