2207 T1/T3 Wireless Field Services Module

Application Highlights

• Isolate and troubleshoot physical layer

problems associated with data or other

services

• Verify proper network routings and

signal delays to ensure all fractional T1

channel signals are terminated properly

and with the correct timing

• Monitor network voice quality and

signaling

• Test the ability of a PBX/Switch to

handle incoming calls

• Verify or troubleshoot ISDN PRI

service

• Qualify DS3 circuits with an array of

BERT patterns

• Analyze DS1 tributaries at DS3 access

points

• Monitor the quality of Global System for

Mobile Communications (GSM) digital

wireless traffic

The 2207 T1/T3 Wireless Field Services Module adds digital wireless network test

capabilities as well as standard T1 and ISDN PRI qualification and troubleshooting

applications to the 2000 Test Pad. It supports GSM network testing from a T1 access

point to quickly and accurately diagnose and differentiate wireless service problems

from T1 problems. Use the 2207 between the base station and the switch without

disrupting revenue-generating traffic.

Product Highlights

• Easy-to-use, touch-screen graphical

user interface (GUI) simplifies and

expedites testing

• Modular 2000 Test Pad architecture

enables up-to-date support for

established and emerging technolo-

gies in a single platform

• Engineered for the field with rugged

construction, lightweight design,

and battery-powered operation

• Dual PCMCIA slots support easy

installation of future upgrades and

bring added testing functionality

and versatility

• Automated testing features mini-

mize training costs and testing

complexity

• Combined with DS1, DS3, ISDN PRI

and GSM features, the 2207 is an

all-in-one solution for high-speed

testing the TDM portion of wireless

networks

Applications The 2207 is designed to simplify testing of today’s complex networks by adding the key functionality required to ensure performance of digital wireless networks. Programmed with highly integrated applications for in-service and out-ofservice testing, the 2207 tests at both the pipeline and service levels to ensure that your network is performing as advertised.
PAGE 4
Fractional T1 Channel Testing The 2207 qualifies of fractional T1 service to verify proper network routings and signal delays ensuring that all channel signals are terminated properly and with the correct timing. In rural locations or on the outer reaches of the service area, it is often critical to isolate single-circuit faults without disrupting the entire line.
PAGE 5
Signaling After testing the physical layer when provisioning or troubleshooting T1 voice trunks, it is also necessary to test the transmission and signaling performance of the circuit to verify the ability of a switch or PBX to handle incoming calls and ensure switch-to-switch communications. By placing, receiving, or monitoring voice calls, connectivity can be verified. Capture and display of digits, signaling events, and signaling bits provides a more detailed level of analysis.
PAGE 6
DS3 Testing The first step in provisioning DS3 circuits is qualifying the physical layer. The 2207 provides the ability to qualify DS3 circuits with an array of BER testing patterns for both M13 and C-bit framing and supports the verification of frame synchronization on the circuit. For more comprehensive and flexible testing, it is also often necessary to insert test patterns or tones on single, multiple, or all DS1 channels within the DS3 circuit.
PAGE 7
ISDN PRI Testing After the physical layer has been verified, testing during the provisioning of ISDN service is typically performed at the customer premises by emulating a TE device, such as a PBX, to place and receive voice and data calls. The 2207 supports multiple call types and provides call status results and progress reports for an additional level of detail to ensure calls are successfully established. The reports are also useful for troubleshooting calls that are not established.
PAGE 8
GSM Testing When provisioning or troubleshooting GSM networks, it is necessary to verify both voice quality and connectivity. Non-intrusively monitoring traffic—including voice conversations and service statistics from a T1 access point verify the Abis interface between the Base Tranceiver Station (BTS) and Base Station Controller (BSC)—provides a comprehensive measure of network and circuit performance. This also allows for sectionalization of trouble between different network elements.
