networks. Out-of-service testing usually applies to the

installation, commissioning and the “bringing into service”

measurements needed to qualify a digital transmission
link using industry standard test patterns and methods.
In-service testing is an important, ongoing maintenance
task - field technicians can monitor PCM signals for errors,
alarms, level, frequency and pulse shape to prevent service Protected
degradation. The transmitter and receiver can be configured Monitoring

Synchronized Network
Synchronized Packet Network and Mobile Backhaul Testing – Mobile operators confronted with the explosive growth of
data-centric services driven by 3G and LTE Smartphone applications, are urgently upgrading and migrating traditional TDM backhaul
networks to Ethernet/IP packet-based technologies. The TX130M+ tester equipped with a hybrid of interfaces and applications is perfectly
equipped to test both PDH/DSn and IP transport over copper and fiber backhaul connections across the Radio Access Network (RAN).

and other access protocols is possible.

Jitter Measurements
Data integrity in plesiochronous networks depends largely on the phase stability of clock and data signals, therefore excessive jitter can
cause network outages. Because BER testing is the common method to diagnose network problems in the field, results often mislead
the technician because only the effect of a problem and not the actual cause is reported. Ultimately, this makes fault identification more
difficult, time consuming, and expensive.

The jitter software option of the TX130M+ uses advanced digital measurement techniques for measuring intrinsic jitter, allowing technicians
to easily determine when jitter is the source of errors.

Jitter Metrics
Output jitter performance mandated by ITU-T and Telcordia
standards is evaluated by measuring the recovered clock of
the incoming signal (DS1, DS3, E1, E3) traversing the network.

While the test duration is not defined in the mentioned standards,

a measurement period time of 1 minute is recommended.
Specified in unit intervals (UI), the maximum Peak-to-Peak
Jitter is the most important parameter because Max values are
indicative of performance, as these extremes generally cause
errors. While jitter is defined as any phase variations above 10Hz,
the incoming signal must be filtered in order to measure jitter –
the user is therefore able to select between Wide band and High
band filters to adjust the measurement bandwidth as required.

Ethernet Features cont’d
Q-in-Q (VLAN stacking) Test Port Status
For Metro and Carrier Ethernet applications, VLAN stacking, also Auto-negotiation is a function that enables Fast Ethernet devices
known as Q-in-Q, is supported. This feature makes a provision to automatically exchange information over a link about speed
for carrier/service provider assigned VLANs, but also retains the and duplex abilities. A common cause of performance issues on
VLAN of customer traffic. 10/100T Ethernet links occurs when one port on the link operates
at half-duplex while the other port operates at full-duplex.

The port status feature of the TX130M+ reports the auto-

negotiation and link advertisement parameters of both test set
and link partner, which helps to reduce many link performance-
related support calls.

Smart Loopbacks
Four modes are available for looping back test traffic. At Layer 1,
all incoming traffic is looped back unaltered. For Layer 2, all
incoming unicast traffic is looped back with the MAC source and
destination addresses swapped. For Layer 3, all incoming unicast
traffic is looped back with the MAC and IP source and destination
addresses swapped, and for Layer 4, all incoming unicast traffic
is looped back with the MAC, IP, and UDP/TCP ports swapped.

MPLS Measurements
Multiple Protocol Label Switching (MPLS) is a technology that
allows for a more efficient routing of Ethernet/IP packets via the
use of MPLS routers in the network. MPLS labels reside between
the MAC (Layer 2) and IP layers (Layer 3). Up to three MPLS tags
can be configured in the traffic stream with user configurable
Label, CoS, and TTL fields.

Delay and Jitter Measurements

Frame delay and Jitter measurements are supported. Jitter
measurements are based on RFC3393 which describes the
industry recognized Inter Packet Delay Variation (IPDV) method.
Jitter measurements are performed on the test traffic during
BER tests or throughput tests.

This unique SYNC mode allows the clocks on both PDH/DSn and
Ethernet interfaces to be synchronized, so that simultaneous
BERT measurements can be performed. This integrated approach
eliminates complex setups typical of using multiple testers and
drastically reduces testing time of hybrid Synchronized Packet
and legacy TDM services.
 IP/IVoIP TESTING
IP Testing
Used initially only for Local Area Network (LAN) connectivity
within the enterprise, the Internet Protocol (IP) has quickly grown
to be the de-facto standard for multi-service network transport.

For Telco and IT technicians, it’s no longer enough to validate

equipment at the physical interface or connection protocol
level only, so IP testing has become a routine task during service
installation and restoration.

The TX130M+ supports an array of IP test functions over the

10/100/1000BaseT, 100-FX and 1000-X port including Ping, Trace
Route and Triple Play measurement tasks. Web browsing, FTP
throughput, and VoIP tests can be performed at various points
in the network to ensure customer satisfaction.
