Test Set at Customer Premises

Figure 1 Connecting to the VTU-O Use the following procedure in the order given: 1. Power on the test set. 2. Connect the test set to the circuit via the modules VDSL port. Depending on the access point, use an RJ-11 to RJ-11 or RJ-11 to alligator clips cable. 3. The test set automatically tries to synchronize with the far end VTU-O. See the top of the screen for status information. 4. While the test set is trying to connect with the VTU-O, it displays ATTEMPTING TO OPEN LINK at this stage, the xTU-R LED is blinking red. 5. When the test set recognizes the VTU-Os response, it displays TRAINING. This indicates that it has made contact with the VTU-O and is starting the handshake procedure to establish synchronization (SHOWTIME). 6. If the test set successfully connects with the VTU-O, the screen automatically displays the CURRENT STATUS screen. The message now reads LINK UP. The xTU-R LED is green. Refer to Section 3.2.1 for details on this screen. If unsuccessful, the test set will continue trying to establish synchronization and the xTU-R LED will remain blinking red.

3.2 Modem Status This menu screen contains the following: CURRENT STATUS TONE GRAPHIC/TABLE LINK MEASUREMENTS 3.2.1 Current Status The left column in the screen shown on the right displays the downstream result, indicating the direction from the DSLAM to the customer (CPE). The right column shows the upstream result from the customer to the DSLAM.

Figure 6 Current Status Screen Modem DOWNSTREAM Statistics RATE: Link up speed of the VDSL connection. MAX: Maximum downstream rate the VDSL line can support. CPTY: Line Capacity is a ratio of (achieved line rate/attainable line rate) x 100. For example, a CPTY reading of 85% means the modem has the capability to transmit 15% more line rate. SNRM: Realized Signal-to-Noise Margin is the margin above the signal-to-noise ratio required to support the bit rate. ATTN: Attenuation is the difference in dB between the power received at the near end and that transmitted from the far end. DELY: Delay in mS. This is the actual delay in milliseconds introduced by the interleaver. The delay ranges from 1 to 63 mS. The interleaver delay is set to meet the network service providers requirements for error burst protection and latency. Modem UPSTREAM Statistics RATE: Upstream link up speed. PWR: Aggregate Power of the signal from test set to DSLAM. DELY: Delay in mS. This is the actual delay in milliseconds introduced by the interleaver. The delay ranges from 1to 63 mS. The interleaver delay is set to meet the network service providers requirements for error burst protection and latency.

Note: Because this screen is constantly updating, some of the values may slip below the requirements at times. The requirements specify what is needed for link turn-up. The following sub-section, Interpreting the Results, mentions that 8 dB is a commonly used target noise margin. This applies to initial synchronization only. Depending on noise conditions, the value can slip without losing synchronization. CURRENT STATUS F-keys CONTINU (F1): Return to the previous screen. OPEN/CLOSE (F2): Open the link, press again to close. RETRAIN (F3): Restart the handshake procedure. STORE (F4): Store results.. Use the procedures described in . Interpreting the Results Fixed Rate Circuits Fixed rate circuits specify an exact data rate for the customer. If testing a Fixed Rate service, look at the following: RATE: This should equal the fixed upstream and downstream rate set for the circuit. For example, if the circuit under test is congured for 384 downstream/128 upstream, a downstream rate at 384 and a upstream rate at 128 should be observed. SNRM: Confirm that the signal-to-noise margin complies with your companys requirements. A common standard is 8 dB, higher values can provide more room for any introduced noise. Rate Adaptive Circuits Rate adaptive circuits specify minimum and maximum data rates for a circuit, and try to attain the maximum rate set by the DSLAM. If testing a Rate Adaptive service, observe the following: RATE: This should be between the minimum and maximum thresholds set for the circuit. SNRM: The Signal-to-Noise margin needs to be above the minimum allowable margin. Commonly it is 8 dB; the observed margin might be higher. Since rate adaptive circuits try to use all the possible bandwidth, the noise margin will typically be very close to 8 dB (or the minimum value).

Turn-up Examples A service provider offers a xed rate service at 1504 kbps downstream/384 kbps upstream. A technician turned up two different circuits. Both met the required bit rate; however, there were some crucial differences in results. Example 1 In a good circuit, RATE matches the specified fixed rates. A downstream SNRM of 16 dB allows handling of additional interference (impulse noise) without affecting service. This is reflected in a low downstream CPTY of 33%. This means the customer data uses only 1/3 of the available bandwidth.

Figure 7 Link Turn-up Results from a Good Circuit Example 2 In a borderline circuit, RATE does meet the specified fixed rates. However, downstream SNRM is only 6 dB, and downstream CPTY is 98%.

3.2.2 Tone Graphic/Table This menu screen contains the following: BITS PER TONE SNR PER TONE 3.2.2.1 Bits Per Tone Measure the bits per tone distribution used by the modem to transmit the provisioned rate. View the number of bits assigned per tone as a graphic or as a table. The first screen allows selection of the following MHz ranges: If Plan 997, use these: If Plan 998, use these: SUMMARY: 0.138M12.0M SUMMARY: 0.138M12.0M DS1: 0.138M3.0M DS1: 0.138M3.75M USI: 3.0M5.1M USI: 3.75M5.2M DS2: 5.1M7.05M DS2: 5.2M8.5M US2: 7.05M12.0M US2: 8.5M12.0M Note: US is upstream, DS is downstream frequencies. After making a selection, press ENTER to view the BIT GRAPHIC screen. During modem initialization, a signal-to-noise measurement for each tone is made. Bit distribution is then optimized to meet the desired bit rate. Each tone can support a theoretical maximum of 15 bits. During operation, the bit distribution may be adjusted to optimize bandwidth. The modem constantly monitors the signal-to-noise ratio for each tone. If a tone degrades in quality, it sends a bit swap command to adjust the amount of bits assigned to that particular tone. These bits may be added to a different tone or taken out completely. An example of the SUMMARY: 0.0M12.0M screen is shown.

To learn the exact bit count and frequency of a specic tone, refer to the line just above the graph. This line provides the bit count for the tone marked by the pointer arrow. In the left screen shown in the previous figure, the pointer arrow is at tone 34 (146 kHz) with 10 bits. To move the pointer arrow: 1. Press to move the pointer arrow one tone at a time. 2. Press << (F1) or >> (F2) to move the pointer arrow to another tick mark shown on the horizontal axis of the graph. A page indicator is shown to the right of the screen name. In the left screen of the previous figure, it reads pg1/11. This indicates that page 1 out of 11 is displayed. To view other pages, move the pointer arrow off the page. A table of the tones can be viewed by pressing F4. An example is shown in the right screen in Figure 9. Listed for each tone is the number of bits assigned to it. Press PAGE-UP (F1) or PAGE-DN (F2) to scroll through all tones. In either screen, press STORE (F3) to save the results.

3.2.2.2 SNR Per Tone Measure the signal-to-noise ratio for each downstream tone used by the modem to transmit the provisioned rate. Results can be displayed as a SNR per tone graphic or as a table. During modem initialization, a signal-to-noise measurement is made for each tone; bit distribution is then optimized to meet the desired bit rate. During operation, bit distribution may be adjusted to optimize bandwidth. The modem constantly monitors the signal-to-noise ratio for each tone. If a tone degrades, it sends a bit swap command to adjust the amount of bits assigned to that tone. These bits may be added to a different tone or taken out completely.
