DLS 6500 VDSL DSLAM Production Tester ETSI or ANSI

The DLS 6500 series was designed as a low cost solution to test VDSL DSLAM, multiple port Ethernet First Mile-Copper (EFM-Copper IEEE 802.3ah) access systems or other wide bandwidth access equipment requiring simulation of North American (ANSI) and European (ETSI) copper lines within a manufacturing test environment. The DLS 6500 series simulates attenuation (insertion loss) and return loss for up to 24 copper lines of either 26 AWG (DLS -6526) or TP100 (DLS-6510) . The DLS 6500 has a compact 1U 19 inch rack mountable form factor, allowing up to 96 VDSL DSLAM ports to be tested in less than 4U, a major advantage in space constrained production test stations. Remote user control of the DLS 6500 is achieved via an RS-232 serial port, which allows for a Spirent provided GUI or remote computer based automated testing.

Configuration

The DLS 6500 is available in a NA 26 AWG version, DLS 6526, and a European TP100 version, DLS 6510. Both configurations simulate 0 reach loopback and also loop reach in convenient switchable steps, for each line of simulated twisted pair. The DLS 6500 series offers the bandwidth required for VDSL & EFM-Copper technologies and provides a smooth response from DC to 16 MHz

Bi-directional Signaling& Full Bandwidth

The DLS 6500 uses passive components (R, L, C), which allows the signal's full bandwidth to be passed in both directions simultaneously, just like real cable. The DLS 6500 reproduces both the insertion loss and return loss and thus enables proper termination for your high bandwidth (e.g. VDSL) DSLAM device. Hence, the DLS 6500 provides accurate testing for all your VDSL production applications. The DLS 6500 offers DC-16 MHz of useable simulation bandwidth and a maximum of 50 Vp-p max (DC plus AC) between Tip & Ring. The DLS 6500 may be used to test a variety of local loop remote access products, including VDSL DSLAMs, CPE modems, gateway devices, NIDs, and any high bandwidth copper access devices

DLS 6500 Simulation Features

  • Passive line simulation components (R, L & C) provide for low noise simulation
  • Accurate attenuation and return loss in convenient steps
  • Up to 24 individually controllable wirelines of either 26 AWG or Tp100
  • 1U 19 inch rack mount ideal for high density production testing
  • Rear mounted RJ-45 connectors minimize crosstalk
  • Remote control , via RS 232 using SCPI based commands, provides user full flexibility and commonality with other DLS production systems
  • High unit to unit repeatability - no need to field tune each unit
  • Allow for fast and time saving automated testing for CPE or DSLAMs
