Topics discussed in this chapter include the following: – “About xDSL testing” on page 48 – “Selecting the test mode” on page 49 – “Specifying test settings” on page 49 – “Testing the physical layer” on page 58 – “Testing line quality” on page 58 – “Terminating the loop (SELT)” on page 60 May 2014 SmartClass TPS User’s Guide 22035456, Rev 001 47 Chapter 6 DSL Testing About xDSL testing About xDSL testing The purpose of the DSL tests are to assess the quality of the xDSL signal and to verify the xDSL rates achieved at various points in the network. The tests involve three main steps: – selecting the test mode and specifying test settings – connecting to the line – running the tests The SmartClass Triple Play Services supports two types of modems - the classical BCM96368 modem and the new BCM963168 modem. BCM96368 test options The classical BCM96368 modem supports an optional bonded modem emulate mode, where the SmartClass replaces a bonded modem (terminates the line instead of the CPE). The options available for purchase are as follows: Table 9 DSL testing options for BCM96368 Option Description Order Number ADSL Bonded Bonded mode for ADSL SCTP-ADSL-BONDED VDSL Bonded Bonded mode for VDSL SCTP-VDSL-BONDED Refer to Table 3 on page 3 for the corresponding catalog numbers. BCM963168 test options The new BCM963168 modem features in supporting Single channel ADSL Annex A and Annex B, as well as Single channel VDSL up to 30a. It does not support the bonded modem emulate mode. The option available for purchase is as follow: Table 10 DSL testing options for BCM963168 Option Description Order Number ADSL1/2/2+ Annex B ADSL1/2/2+ Annex B Software Option SCTP-ANXB Refer to Table 4 on page 3 for the corresponding catalog numbers. For additional information about SmartClass Triple Play Services options and services, contact your local JDSU representative or contact JDSU through the company web site, www.jdsu.com. 48 SmartClass TPS User’s Guide 22035456, Rev 001 May 2014 Chapter 6 DSL Testing Selecting the test mode Selecting the test mode Before running any DSL tests, you must specify the test mode and specify test settings. To select the test mode From the main menu, select DSL Test. Select the test mode. For the BCM96368 modem, you can select from: – ADSL/VDSL (Single Pair) – VDSL Bonded (Two-Pair) – ADSL Bonded (Two-Pair) – xDSL SELT For the BCM963168 modem, you can select from: – xDSL (ANX A) – xDSL (ANX B) – xDSL SELT Specify test settings. See “Specifying test settings” on page 49. Specifying test settings Before you begin testing, make sure the test settings on the SmartClass Triple Play Services match the settings of the line that you are testing. The following settings typically must be set: – Modem operation – DSL settings – WAN Network settings – LAN Network settings Configuring the settings can be done one of two ways: – Press a number on the key pad that corresponds to the setting you want to configure. – Use the arrow keys to highlight the setting you want to change, and then press the OK key. Press the Cancel key to exit a menu. TIP: Test configurations can be stored for easy recall and use (see “Managing test configurations” on page 29). May 2014 SmartClass TPS User’s Guide 22035456, Rev 001 49 Chapter 6 DSL Testing Specifying test settings Specifying the modem operation The test settings that you must specify will vary depending on the modem operation mode. You should specify the modem operation mode first. To specify the modem operation mode For the BCM96368 modem: from the ADSL/VDSL menu, select Network. For the BCM963168 modem: from the xDSLmenu, select Network. Specify the Modem Operation (Router or Bridge). The SmartClass Triple Play Services can test DSL services in two modes: DSL-Bridge and DSL-Modem/Router. They include the same testing capabilities, but the difference is in the IP addressing. In DSL-Modem/Router mode, the SmartClass Triple Play Services replaces the modem, router, and test interface. As the router, it stops the service provider’s IP on the network side and assigns private IPs to equipment on the customer side, as shown in Figure 9 on page 50. Customer Premise Service Provider IP, for example 10.1.1.x NETWORK Modem Router Ethernet Private IP, for example 192.168 .x.x Test interface DSLAM SmartClassTPS in DSL Modem/Router mode Figure 9 50 DSL-Modem/Router circuit SmartClass TPS User’s Guide 22035456, Rev 001 May 2014 Chapter 6 DSL Testing Specifying test settings In DSL-Bridge mode, the SmartClass Triple Play Services replaces the modem, hub, and test interface. It does not use a DHCP server so it does not assign IP addresses to other equipment. The end equipment uses either the service provider-supplied IP address or one that is on the same network (same netmask). See Figure 10 on page 51. Customer Premise Service Provider IP, for example 10.1.1.x Modem NETWORK Hub Ethernet STB 10.1.1.x Test interface DSLAM SmartClass TPS in DSL-Bridge mode Figure 10 DSL-Bridge circuit To test in DSL Terminate Mode, use Bridge Mode as it allows VLAN tags to be assigned. To use IPv6 (IPv6oE or IPv6 Multi VLAN), Bridge mode should be used. Optional -Specify Ethernet Router. You do not need to perform this step if not to replace the bridge running on Ethernet interface with a router. You can select Ethernet Router and enable the router between the DSL interface and the Ethernet interface. Note this is another router in addition to that in Figure 9 on page 50. Using the Router Mode the SmartClass TPS will work as the router for the devices connected through the Ethernet port. Not using the Router Mode it will work as a bridge. Press Cancel to return to the previous menu. The modem operation mode is specified. May 2014 SmartClass TPS User’s Guide 22035456, Rev 001 51 Chapter 6 DSL Testing Specifying test settings Specifying DSL settings The settings vary depending on whether testing on a single line or bonded. Specifying DSL (single line) settings To specify DSL test settings From the ADSL/VDSL menu, select DSL. The DSL Summary results menu appears. Press the asterisk (*) to view the Setup menu. Select xDSL Standard and then choose ADSL, VDSL, Auto, or Incremental. Auto will query the DSLAM for the standard. Incremental will cycle through a period of broadcast sequences to the DSLAM, going from VDSL to ADSL and then repeating. If you specified ADSL as the DSL standard, do the following: Select Operation and then select Over POTS or Over ISDN. Specify the ADSL Modulation standard in use. – Auto will revert to ADSL2 if the line doesn’t support ADSL2+ or revert to G.DMT if line doesn’t support ADSL2. Select Auto if using Annex M. – Annex M – G.DMT – G.Lite (only available if Operation is Over POTS) – ADSL2 – ADSL2+ – T1.413 (only available if Operation is Over POTS) NOTE: You may not see all of the settings above. The available selections vary, depending on the configuration and installed options. Select Transport Mode and then choose the transport. ATM specifies Asynchronous Transfer Mode. PTM specifies Packet Transfer Mode. Auto will query the DSLAM for the transport mode. If you specified VDSL as the DSL standard, do the following: Select Operation and then select Over POTS or Over ISDN. Specify the VDSL Profile profile (for example, 8a, 12b, and so on). – Auto will query the DSLAM for the profile. – 8a – 8b – 8c – 8d – 12a – 12b – 17a – 30a 52 SmartClass TPS User’s Guide 22035456, Rev 001 May 2014 Chapter 6 DSL Testing Specifying test settings Select Transport Mode and then choose the transport. ATM specifies Asynchronous Transfer Mode. PTM specifies Packet Transfer Mode. Auto will query the DSLAM for the transport mode. Select G.INP Setup and then specify whether the unit will advertise upstream or downstream G.INP support to the DSLAM. If the selection is changed, the modem resyncs in order to apply the new setting. NOTE: Enabling G.INP only advertises support to the DSLAM. It does not guarantee the connection will use G.INP because G.INP is specified in the CO configuration. Select Vector Mode and then select Full, Friendly, or Off. Vectoring technology is used on VDSL2 connections to reduce cross-talk from other pairs in a binder group resulting in higher downstream and upstream rates for all the pairs in the group. Vector mode is available for single-line VDSL circuits only (not available for bonded, not available for ADSL2). Vector Friendly mode is suggested when there is a need to emulate CPE incapable of full vectoring, but which have been designed to synchronize to a vectoring DSLAM without losing sync. It is a special software that is downloaded to the VTU-R modem enabling it to respond to a vectored request from a VTU-O to allocate net data rates across all bearer channels and to minimize excess SNR per channel. NOTE: When testing on a line that is configured for vectoring, the time to achieve showtime may be longer than a VDSL2 line without vectoring because it takes additional time to negotiate with the DSLAM while assessing all of the pairs for cross-talk. – If using vectoring, the Data network must be enabled and configured because the data layer is used to communicate parameters between the DSLAM and modem during showtime. Select SOS Mode and then specify whether to use SOS mode. This setting is only applicable to VDSL. When enabled, SOS mode ensures that a connection is maintained on the DSL link regardless of suddenly degraded conditions (such as large increases in noise or a large degradation in SNR) and allows the application to maintain at least a minimal connection during a period of degradation. SOS mode can prevent retraining, allowing a more graceful return to normal operation when the period of degradation has ended. Press Cancel to return to the DSL Summary results menu. Specifying DSL settings for Bonded mode (For BCM96368 modem only) To specify Bonded DSL test settings From the ADSL Bonded or VDSL Bonded menu, select ADSL or VDSL. The Group Summary results menu appears. Press the asterisk (*) to view the Setup menu. Do one of the following: – If you are testing ADSL Bonded, select ADSL Modulation and then choose ADSL2, ADSL2+, Annex M, or Auto. Auto will query the DSLAM for the modulation. – If you are testing VDSL Bonded, select VDSL Profile and then choose a profile. Auto will query the DSLAM for the modulation.

This test involves the following steps: – Connecting to the line – Specifying test settings – Performing tests Connecting to the line Before running the test, connect to the line. The procedure varies depending on the interface. To connect to the line If you are on an Ethernet circuit, connect to the line by doing the following: Connect one end of an Ethernet cable to the Ethernet jack on the right side of the unit. Connect the other end of the cable to an Ethernet jack. If you are on a xDSL circuit, connect to the line as described in “Connecting to the line” on page 57. If you wish to allow CPE connectivity, use the Ethernet cable to connect to the CPE by connecting one end of the Ethernet cable to the Ethernet jack on the right side of the SmartClass TPS, and then connecting the other end of the cable to the PC, hub, or router. If you are on a Wi-Fi circuit, configure the Wi-Fi as described in “Emulating a Wi-Fi end point” on page 70. The test leads are connected. IP Ping testing Run an IP ping test when you want to send and receive ping packets to test connectivity. When running an IP ping test, the SmartClass Triple Play Services sends out a ping request packet to which the destination (target) responds by sending a response packet. IP ping tests tell you if the destination is alive and awake, how fast the ping went to the destination and back to the SmartClass Triple Play Services, and if ping packets were dropped and lost along the way. To run an IP ping test If you haven’t already done so, specify the Network settings. (See “Specifying the network setup” on page 42.) Do one of the following: – If testing using IPv4oE, from the IP Data menu, select Ping Test. – If testing using IPv6oE, select the IPv6 Ping menu. 62 SmartClass TPS User’s Guide 22035456, Rev 001 May 2014 Chapter 7 Data testing Monitoring pings Specify the settings.

Capturing network traffic The SmartClass Triple Play Services allows you to capture network packets to a file on the SmartClass or to a file on a USB drive. The capture feature allows you to filter captured information by IP address, port number, or by a user-defined filter string. The information can be saved to a file, using PCAP format, which can be sent to a network technician for analysis on a protocol analyzer. NOTE: Packet Capture is only available in IPv4 modes (not available in IPv6). If you insert a USB drive into the SmartClass Triple Play Services, it will recognize the drive and it will become the default location where the packets will be saved. Otherwise, the packets will be saved to a file in the internal File Manager. The maximum file size for packets stored in the internal File Manager is 1 Mbytes; for USB capture, file size depends on the space available on the USB drive. To capture network traffic May 2014 Select an interface (Ethernet TE, Wi-Fi, DSL-Bridge, or DSL-Modem/Router), and then select Network. From the Interfaces menu, select Packet Capture.

Setting Description Filename Name of the file where the captured packets are saved. Packet limit The packet limit indicates how much information can be stored in the capture file (in other words, the size of the capture file). You can specify from 1 to 10000000 packets. When the maximum file size has been reached, the SmartClass Triple Play Services automatically stops capturing packets. Promiscuous mode Enabling Promiscuous mode causes the SmartClass Triple Play Services to capture all IP traffic regardless of source or destination addresses. Use IP filter Specify whether to filter messages by IP address (No will disable the filter). IP Filter If you selected “Yes” to Use IP filter, enter an IP address to filter on. Only information from the IP address you entered will be captured. Use Port Filter Specify whether to filter messages by port (No will disable the filter). Port Filter If you selected “Yes” to Use Port Filter, enter the port number to filter on. You can enter a number from 2 to 65534. Only messages from the port you entered will be captured. Use Custom Filter Specify whether to filter messages using a custom filter (No will disable the filter) Custom Filter If you selected “Yes” to Use Custom Filter, enter a text string using the keypad. Some commonly used strings are as follows: – tcp - captures only TCP packets – udp - captures only UDP packets – igmp - captures only IGMP packets – not tcp - captures all packets except TCP – less 1000 - captures all packets less than 1000 bytes in length – greater 1000 - captures all packets greater than 1000 bytes in length. Select Packet Capture Menu Press the # key to start the capture. NOTE: The Start key is only available if a valid network connection is present. Captured information is saved to the file. If you have a USB storage device connected, it will be saved there. If not, the file will be saved to the SmartClass Triple Play Services file system. CAUTION: CORRUPTED DATA Removing the USB drive during a file capture or file save may corrupt the data. Do not remove the drive until all files have been saved or the packet capture is complete. You have captured network traffic. 66 SmartClass TPS User’s Guide 22035456, Rev 001 May 2014 8 Chapter 8 Wi-Fi Testing This chapter provides task-based instructions for using the optional Wi-Fi testing features.

Topics discussed in this chapter include the following: – “About the SmartIDs” on page 78 – “Registering SmartIDs” on page 79 – “Configuring SmartID settings” on page 79 – “Locating SmartIDs” on page 80 – “Testing the home run for VDSL service” on page 81 – “Testing the home network” on page 82 May 2014 SmartClass TPS User’s Guide 22035456, Rev 001 77 Chapter 10 SmartID Testing About the SmartIDs About the SmartIDs The SmartIDs (Figure 14) allow a technician to connect the directly to any single SmartID device which then communicates with any other connected SmartID devices in order to certify an in-home network and provide distances to found impairments. See Figure 15. Figure 14 SmartID The difference in the SmartIDs versus the other terminators is that the terminators only indicate their location, whereas the SmartIDs each also are used to identify their location, but also each SmartID does a broadband noise ingress measurement, dual-ended FDR for coax mapping and frequency sweeping to locate impairments. Figure 15 SmartID connection If a Diplexer is on the network, disconnect the VDSL connection. 78 SmartClass TPS User’s Guide 22035456, Rev 001 May 2014 Chapter 10 SmartID Testing Registering SmartIDs There are three test modes – Locate SmartIDs – finds and identifies all SmartIDs currently connected to the network. – VDSL Home Run Check – a two-point (two SmartIDs) test across the cable connecting at the residential gateway and the diplexer locations. This test is to qualify a coaxial cable home run intended to be used for VDSL service from the NID to a RG (i.e. instead of supplying VDSL signal to the RG over twisted pair). – Whole Home Check – tests a complex cable network that may or may not include a Diplexer. It is intended to qualify the network for HPNA. Registering SmartIDs Before the first test with the SmartIDs, you must register all of the SmartIDs with the instrument. This registration applies to the SmartID that the is physically connected to. You will need to repeat the procedure for each SmartID, connecting it directly to the .

NOTE: Some call controls are options, so if your unit is not equipped with the option, you will not see all of the selections. Auto Answer Specify whether to automatically answer incoming calls. Yes means all incoming calls are answered automatically. No is the typical setup and means that calls will be answered manually. Alias (H.323 or SIP) For H.323, this is the phone number alias that will be associated with the phone that you are trying to emulate. This phone number will be included in the connection request messages that are exchanged with the Gatekeeper/Proxy or other endpoint devices. For SIP, this specifies the registrar. If you have a network that uses one server for registration (the registrar) and another for placing and receiving calls “Alias” specifies the registrar. (“Proxy IP” on the Proxy Settings menu specifies the server used for placing and receiving calls.) There are two ways to get the Alias for SIP - you can specify the Alias by directly entering a value by yourself; or alternatively, by querying a web server to get back an Alias value. Using the latter way, you need to enter the URL of the web server. H.323 ID (H.323) Enter the ID, using up to 40 characters. This is an ID element field in the ALIAS information that is sent to the Gatekeeper during all registration and request messages. The H.323 gateway registers with an H.323 ID.

IP video testing involves the following steps: – specifying test settings – connecting to the line – analyzing video streams 96 SmartClass TPS User’s Guide 22035456, Rev 001 May 2014 Chapter 12 IP Video Testing Specifying test settings Specifying test settings Before you begin testing, make sure the test settings on the SmartClass Triple Play Services match the settings of the line and network configuration you are testing. TIP: Test configurations can be stored for easy recall and use (see “Managing test configurations” on page 29). To specify test settings From the IP Video menu, select Video Setup, and then specify the settings. Configuring the settings can be done one of two ways: – Press a number on the key pad that corresponds to the setting you want to configure. – Use the arrow keys to highlight the setting you want to change, and then press the OK key. Press the Cancel key to exit a menu. NOTE: You must specify the interface settings before specifying Video settings. For example, you must configure the Data, LAN, and other applicable settings for a xDSL line. The following table describes the settings. Setting Description Mode Select Terminate or Monitor mode. Analysis Type Select Normal or UT Starcom. Use UT Starcom when analyzing Rolling Stream video streams. IGMP Version If you are in Terminate mode, specify the version of IGMP signaling being used on the circuit: version 2 or version 3. RTSP Port Enter the RTSP port number. This is the port where RTSP signaling communication takes place in a particular network. RTSP Vendor Enter the RTSP vendor. This setting is only relevant in Terminate mode. To specify settings for a particular stream, do the following: From the Video Setup menu, select the Stream Setup for the desired stream, for example Stream 1 Setup. These settings are only available in Terminate Mode. May 2014 SmartClass TPS User’s Guide 22035456, Rev 001 97 Chapter 12 IP Video Testing Specifying test settings Specify the settings. The following table describes the settings. Setting Description Stream Type Select the video stream type: – Broadcast Auto – Broadcast MPEG2-TS/UDP – Broadcast MPEG2-TS/RTP/UDP – Broadcast RTP/UDP – Broadcast Rolling Stream – RTSP MPEG2-TS/(RTP)/UDP – RTSP RTP/UDP – RTSP RTP/TCP IP Enter the IP address of the stream. (Not available for RTSP screams.) Port Number Enter the port number of the stream. (Not available for stream type “Broadcast Auto” or RTSP streams) URL Enter the URL for the stream. (Only available with RTSP streams) On the Video Setup menu, select QoS Thresholds, and then specify the settings. The quality of service (QoS) measurement uses two thresholds – good and poor – to produce three quality ratings: good, poor, and fair. If the value is less than the good threshold, it is considered good and is indicated with a check mark. A value between good and poor is considered fair and is indicated by an exclamation mark. If the value is greater than the poor threshold, it is considered poor and is indicated by an X. Additionally, RFC 2680 and RFC 3357 define enhanced analysis methods that are used to measure the quality of a media stream. There are two main statistics for this: Loss Period and Loss Distance. The following table describes the settings. 98 Setting Description Latency Good Enter the Pass threshold, in milliseconds. Latency is the amount of time between sending the “join” message and receiving the first video packet on the STB. Latency Poor Enter the Fail threshold, in milliseconds. Leave Latency Good Enter the Pass threshold, in milliseconds. Leave Latency is the amount of time between sending the “leave” message and receiving the last video packet on the STB. Leave Latency Poor Enter the Fail threshold, in milliseconds. Jitter Good Enter the Pass threshold, in milliseconds. Jitter Poor Enter the Fail threshold, in milliseconds. Loss Good Enter the Pass threshold, in milliseconds. Loss Poor Enter the Fail threshold, in milliseconds. MPEG2-TS Error Ind. Good Enter the Pass threshold. MPEG2-TS Error Ind. Poor Enter the Fail threshold. SmartClass TPS User’s Guide 22035456, Rev 001 May 2014 Chapter 12 IP Video Testing Specifying test settings Setting Description MPEG2-TS PID Timeout Enter the PID Timeout. This is the amount of time to wait for a PID that has been declared as having video or audio data for traffic, since the last traffic was received. If this threshold is violated, then the PID Timeout result will increment. MPEG2-TS PAT/PMT Timeout Enter the PAT/PMT Timeout. This is the amount of time to wait after the last received PAT or PMT packet before declaring a timeout condition (which would then increment the PAT Errors or PMT Errors statistics) RTP Loss Distance Enter the Loss Distance threshold, in number of packets. This triggers when RTP losses cause a RTP LD Error. “Loss Distance” measures the difference in sequence numbers of two loss events, with a “loss event” being the loss of one or more packets in a row. So for the following stream (1 x 3 4 5 x x 8 9 10) the loss distance between the two events is 4. If the loss distance is less than the configured threshold, then the “Loss Distance Error” statistic will increment. RTP Loss Period Enter the Loss Period threshold, in number of packets. This triggers when RTP losses cause a RTP LP Error. “Loss period” is the length of a single loss event, that is, the number of lost packets between two successfully received packets. So for the following example stream (1 x x x 5 6 7 x x 10 x 12), there are three loss periods, with lengths of 3, 2, and 1. On the Video Setup menu, select MOS Setup, and then specify the settings. NOTE: When MOS Support is enabled, analysis is limited to one stream. The following table describes the settings. Setting Description MOS Support Specify whether MOS Support is enabled or disabled.

Analyzing video streams The SmartClass Triple Play Services analyzes the video data packet flow at the packet level. Since the initial video quality is established by the source material and encoding process at the head end, and the decoding quality is established by the STB, the effects of the transport and access networks on the video streams are the variables requiring analysis. Actual video content decoding is not performed. NOTE: The data connection must be established for video streams to be visible to the SmartClassTriple Play Services and the video statistics screens to show activity. After the SmartClass Triple Play Services is setup, it can analyze video performance. Up to three streams can be simultaneously analyzed in Terminate mode. In monitor mode, up to 3 simultaneous streams can be analyzed at one time, with statistics available for up to 10 previous streams.

SmartClass TPS User’s Guide 22035456, Rev 001 May 2014 Chapter 15 Copper Testing Running copper measurements To learn what your results mean, see “Copper results” on page 135. Running copper measurements Using the Measure menu, you can individually perform all of the copper measurements. If you want to skip a measurement, use the down arrow to move to the next test. Use the up and down arrow keys to change the pair. After a one second pause, the test begins automatically. To clear the results and restart the test, press the asterisk () key. To run copper measurements Connect the Tip (A), Ring (B), and Ground (E) leads to the line under test. From the main menu, select Copper. Select Measure. NOTE: This procedure describes how to run all of the measurements in one test sequence. If desired, you may run a single copper test, such as measuring DC Current only. To do this, from the Measure menu, select the test you wish to run and then view the results. Select AC Volts. The AC voltage test can detect the presence of hazardous voltages, measure induced AC current from power lines and other AC sources, and measure ringer voltage levels. After a one second pause, the test begins automatically and results appear on the screen. Press the right arrow to move to DC Volts. The DC voltage test can detect and measure CO/exchange battery current and detect crossed battery conditions. After a one second pause, the test begins automatically and results appear on the screen. Press the right arrow to move to Resistance. Resistance should be measured with the battery disconnected, so that the resistance of the battery itself doesn't affect the measurements. After a one second pause, the test begins automatically and results appear on the screen. NOTE: The unit will check for damaging voltages before performing the resistance test. If detected, the unit will display “WARNING! VOLTAGE DETECTED” and will not perform the test. If resistance is 4 k or less, use the pound/hash (#) key to measure the Distance to Short. NOTE: For the resistive distance to be accurate, it is critical that you enter the correct gauge and temperature (in the COPPER SETUP menu). After a one second pause, the test begins automatically and results appear on the screen. Press the right arrow to move to Leakage. After a one second pause, the test begins automatically and results appear on the screen. Press the right arrow to move to Opens. This test measures the total electrical (capacitive) length of a pair. May 2014 SmartClass TPS User’s Guide 22035456, Rev 001 115 Chapter 15 Copper Testing Running copper measurements After a one second pause, the test begins automatically and results appear on the screen. NOTE: When measuring from Tip (A) or Ring (B) to Ground (E), you should connect the Ground (E) lead to the shield (ground), and be sure to enter the fill type (in the COPPER SETUP menu) or the distance will not be accurate. If you connect to some other ground that is not parallel to your pair, and do not enter the appropriate fill type, this measurement will be inaccurate. 10 Press the right arrow to move to DC Current. This test checks for continuity and checks for proper loop current for POTS lines (to verify if enough current is present to operate equipment including the phone or caller ID boxes). After a one second pause, the test begins automatically and results appear on the screen. 11 Press the right arrow to move to Balance. Balance is a number representing the quality of the telephone circuit and the degree to which the Tip (A) and Ring (B) conductors are electrically the same in their ability to cancel noise. The balance measurement is used to identify poor loop quality or cable bonding and grounding issues that allow excessive loop noise. NOTE: A ground connection is required to measure balance. After a one second pause, the test begins automatically and results appear on the screen. 12 Press the right arrow to move to Load Coil. The SmartClass Triple Play Services can detect up to five load coils that may exist on the line, out to 27,000 (8,200 meters) feet. It will also report a short, open, or a high noise condition, if detected. For accurate load coil detection, disconnect the pair from the CO/exchange to remove CO battery/wetting current. Although the detector will work with voltage on a pair, accuracy will be reduced. In addition, the detector works best when the last coil is followed by at least 1200 feet (336 meters) of cable. After a one second pause, the test begins automatically and results appear on the screen. 13 To save a test report, press the utility (i) key and then select Save Report, and then specify the report settings such as report name, report format, technician ID, location, and other settings as needed.

AC voltage You measure AC volts to: May 2014 SmartClass TPS User’s Guide 22035456, Rev 001 135 Chapter 16 Test Results Copper results – detect the presence of hazardous voltage. – measure stray or foreign voltages. – measure ringer voltage level. AC voltage results on Tip (A) to Ring (B) should be 0.0 volts. Tip (A) to ground and Ring (B) to ground should be equal to each other. Anything else indicates AC signal interference and/or an unbalanced line. Table 43 describes the AC voltage result. Table 43 AC Voltage result specifications Range (VAC) Resolution (V) Accuracy AC peak + [VDC] < 300 2% ± 1.0V WARNING: INSTRUMENT DAMAGE Although the SmartClass Triple Play Services is designed to measure hazardous voltage, it is designed to do so on telecom circuits, not power mains. Hazardous voltages may be on the power lines. 220 mains (RMS) are equivalent to 308 peak. Connecting to these circuits may result in damage to equipment or serious injury. DC voltage You measure DC volts to: – detect and measure CO/exchange battery voltage. – detect crossed battery conditions. To measure DC volts, remove the line battery and measure Tip (A) and Ring (B) to ground. It should be < 3.0 volts; anything else indicates crossed battery that inhibits digital signals. Table 44 describes the DC voltage result. Table 44 DC voltage result specifications Range (VDC) Resolution (V) Accuracy AC peak + [VDC] < 300 2% ± 1.0V Resistance You measure resistance to test line continuity and quality, and to detect corrosion, shorts, opens, and faults. The SmartClass Triple Play Services is able to measure resistance in the presence of noise and foreign voltage, but the accuracy may be reduced, depending on the noise level. Resistance should be measured with the line disconnected, so that the battery voltage and CO/ Exchange termination don't affect the measurement. Normal resistance should be at least 5 M; lower values indicate the presence of faults. 136 SmartClass TPS User’s Guide 22035456, Rev 001 May 2014 Chapter 16 Test Results Copper results Table 45 describes the resistance result.

You should verify whether your problem is listed here before contacting technical assistance. Operating the unit The following section addresses questions that may be asked about operating and performing basic functions with the SmartClass Triple Play Services. Issue The handset (internal) microphone does not work. Resolution The microphone is only used for POTS and VoIP calls. 150 SmartClass TPS User’s Guide 22035456, Rev 001 May 2014 Chapter 18 Maintenance and Troubleshooting Resolving problems Performing tests The following section addresses questions that may be asked about completing tests with the SmartClass Triple Play Services. The following sections are included: – General – Ethernet tests – DSL tests – VoIP tests – Video tests – Copper tests General test problems The following section addresses questions about testing in general. Issue Inconsistent test results. Resolution Verify that your test leads are good and are connected properly for the test you are performing. DSL test problems The following section addresses questions about DSL testing. Issue The modem cannot achieve sync with the CO. Resolution Inability to sync can have many causes. Perform the following steps to troubleshoot: – Disconnect the customer's DSL modem. – Verify tester connection to the correct pair. – Verify the Data mode. – Verify that the Standard is correct (ADSL2+, G.DMT, Auto, etc.). – Isolate premise wiring. – Check for premise alarm system. – Verify the copper pair is provisioned for ADSL or VDSL at the CO. – Test at the CO/Exchange on the customer pair. – Check the DSLAM modem vendor and software version. Issue The modem gets sync with the CO, but the rate is lower than expected. Resolution Verify that you are on an ADSL2/2+ or VDSL line, as appropriate. May 2014 SmartClass TPS User’s Guide 22035456, Rev 001 151 Chapter 18 Maintenance and Troubleshooting Resolving problems Check the bits/tone and the SNR/tone for areas of the spectrum with low throughput. This could be caused by bridged taps, cable crosstalk, or AM radio. Check the DSLAM configuration - the max rate may be limited there. Check for premise alarm system on the same pair. Avoid excessive loop length or high attenuation. Make sure that you are connected on pins 3 and 4. Verify the noise margin. Data test problems The following section addresses questions about Data testing. Issue The IP ping menu says pings are being sent, but the network statistics are not incrementing. Resolution Verify that the network is up by checking the Frame LED. It should be solid green. Verify the IP address and netmask. You may be behind a firewall. Use trace route to determine whether this is the case. The IP ping function only attempts to send a ping every second. Depending on certain conditions, a physical ping packet may not be sent. If IPoE or PPPoE data mode is being used, the device has to ARP the address first. If this fails eventually you will see a ARP HOST UNREACHABLE message. Check to see that the destination IP address and your configured IP parameters are correct. If the Ethernet interface is being used, make sure that the cabling is correct. If the Ethernet cable is not hooked up, or is hooked up incorrectly, a packet will not be sent. Thus the Ethernet statistics will not increment. Issue The Sync LED is green, but the Frame LED status is not. Resolution Verify that the Data Mode is not set to None. Issue In through mode, I’m connected to the Ethernet connector, but I’m not getting a data connection (green Frame LED). Resolution Go to the Ethernet Settings screen and check the Media Type. If it’s set to Auto, change it to match the specific LAN speed and duplex type that you are using. 152 SmartClass TPS User’s Guide 22035456, Rev 001 May 2014 Chapter 18 Maintenance and Troubleshooting Resolving problems Issue I’m on an ADSL circuit and the ATM results indicate that I am receiving frames but the Frame LED is not green and IP pings are not working. Resolution Check the encapsulation and the mode. The wrong protocol may be in use. Issue I’m on an ADSL circuit and I have a PPPoA service and I get a PPP TIMEOUT message Resolution Verify that the VPI-VCI is correct. Verify that the encapsulation is correct. Verify that the addressing mode is set correctly (IPCP/Static). Verify that the username and password are correct. Issue I have a PPPoE connection and I get a PPPoE FAILED message. Resolution Verify that the VPI-VCI is correct. Verify that the encapsulation is correct. Verify that the addressing mode is correct. Verify that the user name and password are correct (including case). Check for a VLAN. Issue I’m on an ADSL circuit and I have a Bridged Ethernet connection and I get a DCHP FAILED message. Resolution Verify that the VPI-VCI is correct. Verify that the encapsulation is correct. Verify that the DHCP server isn't out of addresses. (Contact your IT department or help desk.) Issue I get an INVALID CONFIG message. Resolution Verify that a valid IP address is being used (examples of invalid IP addresses would be *.*.*.0 or 127.*.*.* or 10.0.0.1 or 192.168.0.0). May 2014 SmartClass TPS User’s Guide 22035456, Rev 001 153 Chapter 18 Maintenance and Troubleshooting Resolving problems Verify that the IP address and gateway are on the same network as defined by the netmask. Check the netmasks if Ethernet IP = DSL IP. The netmasks must be different. Verify that the Netmask is not set to 0.0.0.0. Issue The Frame LED is green, but IP pings are not working. Resolution A green Data status indicator does not guarantee an IP ping (or any routed/bridged packet) will be treated properly once it leaves the unit. In an Ethernet bridged or IP over ATM environment with static addressing, there is no initial communication with the far end, so as soon as ATM sync occurs the interface is deemed active to pass user data. Make sure that the VPI and VCI is correct. Make sure that the encapsulation is correct. Try pinging a different host. Make sure the DNS server is active with another PC. Set the ping packet size smaller. Make sure the Data mode is set correctly for the type of circuit under test (such as PPPoE versus IPoE). Make sure you are not behind a firewall; they can block ping responses from reaching the host. Check to see if the connection is unnumbered. If it is, verify that the connection is configured correctly. View the IP Ping results menu. It can often give important clues as to why the ping is not successful. VoIP test problems The following section addresses questions about VoIP testing. Issue The VoIP call didn’t go through. Resolution Check your connections to verify that they are hooked up properly. Check the status LEDs. The Sync and Frame LEDs should be green. Verify the LAN settings (IP address, netmask, DNS name). Verify the call control. Most equipment uses Fast Connect. If you do not have a gatekeeper, verify the outgoing alias and IP address. If you are using a gatekeeper, verify you are registered with the gatekeeper. 154 SmartClass TPS User’s Guide 22035456, Rev 001 May 2014 Chapter 18 Maintenance and Troubleshooting Resolving problems If you are on an IPoE line and STUN is enabled, the data layer will not come up until the STUN client on the SmartClass has determined the type of NAT used between the SmartClass and the STUN server. Wait a few minutes and try to resync. Check with your system administrator to verify that the firewall allows VoIP traffic. Issue I am emulating a SIP phone but cannot register with the SIP server. Resolution In typical networks, the same server handles both registration and placing and receiving calls. However, in some networks, there is a Proxy server that handles SIP messaging for placing and receiving calls, and a registrar that handles registration, which may be in a different domain. If this is the case, do the following. – Verify that you specified the “Proxy” on the Proxy Settings menu as the outbound proxy, or the device from which the SmartClass will send and receive all SIP messages (for placing and receiving calls). – Verify that you specified the “Alias” on the General Settings menu as the SIP server or registrar (the device that keeps track of all the registered devices), using the following format “phoneNumber@domain” where domain is either an IP address of the registrar or a literal domain such as “jdsu.com”. Issue The VoIP delay measurement does not appear. Resolution The Delay result is only calculated if the RTCP signaling is active. Issue I have very little loss, but a high level of delay. Resolution Check your network. It may be experiencing high traffic. Issue I have a large amount of jitter, but no loss or delay. Resolution Check the setup of your router. May 2014 SmartClass TPS User’s Guide 22035456, Rev 001 155 Chapter 18 Maintenance and Troubleshooting Resolving problems Video test problems Individual program flows should be analyzed to ensure that both content quality and network performance parameters are within desired network specifications. The suggested thresholds are listed below: Packet loss = less than or equal to 0.1% Packet jitter = less than or equal to 5 msec* PCR jitter = less than or equal to 5 msec* Error indicator = zero count IGMP latency = less than or equal to 200 msec *Specific STB/decoder designs may be able to tolerate higher levels of jitter based on larger buffer designs. Less than or equal to 10 msec may be acceptable. Five to ten msec is a conservative PCR jitter level. As network designs and STBs increase buffer sizes, the acceptable level will rise. The acceptable level for a particular network is a company-specific issue. When these measurements are made simultaneously on more than one channel, then content problems can be easily separated from distribution network problems, a critical determination for problem resolution. Issue I have continuity errors. Resolution Packet loss (continuity error) problems are typically seen on all channels/programs coming to the premise because they are not source or content related. If packet loss is present, analysis of the physical layer at the xDSL interface or Ethernet interface will aid in sectionalization. If no physical layer errors are present, then packet loss is most likely being caused by the distribution network not from the access network. Congestion is most likely at issue. Looking further into the temporal component can help pinpoint the issue. The answers to the following questions can help find the problem area(s). Are packets being lost during known peak traffic times during the day? Are they coming in bursts with intervals with no loss? Are they random single or small packet loss events? Bursts of loss might be more symptomatic of buffer overflows related to heavy traffic. Random single or small events might be more related to noise hits on the access network impacting packet flows. DSL loop performance in the access network may be pushing the bandwidth limits when signal to noise margins are low and the addition of a second or third channel flow reaches 100% capacity of the loop. The copper may be poorly balanced allowing high impulse noise to impact the data flows. In-home wiring may be introducing noise which also can damage data flows. Issue I have a PCR jitter result that is higher than expected. Resolution PCR jitter problems may be due to content quality problems as outlined previously or overall network packet jitter. By evaluating more than one channel/program at a time, this can be determined. If excessive PCR jitter is present at more than one channel, network jitter is most likely at fault. If excessive PCR jitter is present on only one channel, then a source problem as described above is normally the cause. 156 SmartClass TPS User’s Guide 22035456, Rev 001 May 2014 Chapter 18 Maintenance and Troubleshooting Resolving problems Issue I am receiving error indicators. Resolution Error Indicator counts indicate content problems, since the indicator can only be set by the encoder. Typically this would affect only one program or channel. However, if a multiple program feed in the head end is experiencing problems, more than one program/channel could be affected. Analyzing a channel from another source, or different feed would be instructive. The video may show poor quality with only the Error Indicator count showing a problem. Any count is bad. Issue I have significantly more IGMP latency on one channel than the others. Resolution IGMP latency measures the network's performance. Typically, IGMP latency would be similar for multiple channels. However, if network topology and management place access to certain program material farther back in the network, then differences could be experienced. If such a hierarchical approach is used, then differences might be detected based upon which programs are accessible deeper in the network. Testing multiple channels/programs to exercise this network design would be useful. Copper test problems The following section addresses questions about Copper testing. Issue The Tip (A) - Ring (B) voltage is reading negative. Resolution The Tip (A) and Ring (B) test leads may be swapped. Check your test leads to verify that they are hooked up properly. Issue The AC voltage test result from Tip (A) to Ground (E) is 5 volts and from Ring (B) to Ground (E) is 15 volts. Resolution Either Tip (A) is open or Ring (B) is longer. This will also be indicated by noise on the loop. Results on Tip (A) to Ring (B) should be 0.0 volts. Tip (A) to Ground (E) and Ring (B) to Ground (E) should be equal to each other. Anything else indicates AC signal interference and/or an unbalanced line. Ringer voltage level can be checked by having the CO ring back on the line. Results should be either 85 volts (older switches) or 105 volts (newer switches). Issue The DC volt measurement on Tip (A) to Ground (E) is 15 volts with the battery removed. Resolution This indicates there may be an open in the insulation drawing current from another pair. May 2014 SmartClass TPS User’s Guide 22035456, Rev 001 157 Chapter 18 Maintenance and Troubleshooting Resolving problems To measure DC volts, remove the line battery and measure Tip (A) and Ring (B) to Ground (E). It should be < 3.0 volts; anything else indicates crossed battery that inhibits digital signals. To check for span/battery voltage, measure Tip (A) to Ring (B) across several pairs. On good lines Tip (A) to Ring (B) will be 48–52 volts, Tip (A) to Ground (E) will be < 5 volts, and Ring (B) to Ground (E) will be -48–52 volts. Issue In the winter, the DC current measured 21 mA from an aerial cable at the NID with are no problems. In the summer, the same line measured 17 mA. Resolution The heat has increased resistance and lowered the current. DC current on Tip (A) to Ring (B) should be 23 mA at the NID. Anything less will not allow for differences in temperature and phone equipment will not operate during extremes. The 23 mA threshold covers most temperature extremes. Issue The resistance measurement on Tip (A) to Ring (B) is 3.5 M, Ring (B) to Ground (E) is 3.5 M, and Tip (A) to Ground (E) is 5 k. Resolution There is a ground fault on Tip (A). The typical resistance is > 3.5 M. Lower values indicate a short or ground fault Loop resistance is measured with the pair short circuited (shorted) at one end, so a much lower resistance value is measured, as the current can readily flow down one lead and easily back up the other across the short. This “loop resistance” measurement is often required to qualify HICAP (highcapacity) circuits such as ADSL with values approximating 700 . Resistance is measured not only across Tip (A) to Ring (B), but also from Tip (A) to Ground (E) or Ring (B) to Ground (E). Resistance is also measured from one lead to Ground (E) to check for shorts to the shield and other ground references, indicating a fault on one lead of the wire pair. Resistance measurements made to Ground (E) are used to compare the resistance value of one lead to the other, to see how much difference exists in the resistance of one lead compared to the other. It is important for both leads to be nearly the same (resistive balance), and a difference of more than 3 percent is usually considered unacceptable. Issue While running the Opens test, the mutual value looks good, but the Tip (A) and Ring (B) values are really short. Resolution Verify the ground. The module must be grounded to the same ground as the pair under test. (Use the Current test to verify the ground. See step 10 on page 116.) Issue Two loops in the same bundle display different loop lengths. 158 SmartClass TPS User’s Guide 22035456, Rev 001 May 2014 Chapter 18 Maintenance and Troubleshooting Resolving problems Resolution Use a known good loop to determine capacitance, then run the opens again to determine the length of the bridge tap or location of the fault. Verify with a tester that has TDR capability. Measure multiple vacant pairs by attaching one lead to Ground (E) and using the other to the Tip (A) of each vacant conductor. (Battery should be removed) Compare the distance for each for consistency. Opens/Capacitance: < 3% difference between Tip (A) and Ring (B) values indicate an acceptably balanced loop. Anything greater indicates an unbalanced line or open fault, which inhibit digital signals. You can also compare the distance from the Opens measurement to a resistive distance measurement, and determine the presence of a bridged tap by the difference in the distances. Issue The balance measurement is 50 dB. Resolution The pair quality is too low as it should mitigate 60 dB. The balance result should be >60 dB. Anything less indicates electrical differences between Tip (A) and Ring (B) that can lead to noise and other signal problems. This would indicate some imbalance in the quality of each lead and reduced noise immunity.The more each lead is electrically identical (capacitance, inductance, impedance), the better the pair will resist induced noise. If they do not cancel induced noise equally, the difference is realized as unwanted current, or metallic or mutual noise. If the imbalance of the leads is too great, the customer would hear noise. Issue The POTS service test is fine but the DSL signal cannot be detected at the NID. The test set indicates 2 load coils on a 15 kft loop. Resolution Load coils block high frequency signals such as DSL and they must be removed for digital circuits. In a normal loading scheme, the first one will be 3 kft from the CO and the second will be 9 kft from the CO. Use a tester that has TDR capability to verify the location of the loads. Loads are used to improve POTS over long loops. On most loops 18 kft or longer, load coils are required to ensure voice quality. Load coils must be evenly spaced starting at 3 kft from the CO and placed at 6 kft intervals thereafter, with at least 2,000 feet between the last load coil and the customer premises.
