  • Page 6 Dynatel Advanced Modular System 965AMS 30-MHz Spectrum Analyzer ™ ™ DSL>DSL Loss>Operation 1. Press the blue DSL to enter the DSL function. Use the up and down arrow keys to select DSL Loss. Use a tone source at the far end that is capable of sending a known output level such as a 965AMS.
  • Page 7 –dBm level at a specific frequency. DSL>DSL Loss>Application Notes DSL Loss measures the signal lost from a tone transmitter (965AMS, 3M Dynatel Far End Device (FED) or other ™ ™ capable device) to the measuring 965AMS.
  • Page 8 Dynatel Advanced Modular System 965AMS 30-MHz Spectrum Analyzer ™ ™ below is a sweep that was performed with a 965AMS, a 3M ™ Dynatel Far End Device FED II and the selected service was ™ ADSL2. Look at the before and after for these two readings. When the bridge tap is removed then the slope no longer displays frequency dips.

    Dynatel Advanced Modular System 965AMS 30-MHz Spectrum Analyzer ™ ™ DSL>DSL Noise Use DSL Noise function to measure the Longitudinal or Metallic Noise on a DSL line. DSL>DSL Noise>Hook-Up DSL>DSL Noise>Operation 1. Press the blue DSL to enter the DSL function. Use the up and down arrow keys to select DSL Noise.
  • Page 10 Dynatel Advanced Modular System 965AMS 30-MHz Spectrum Analyzer ™ ™ DSL>DSL Noise>Operation 3. Use the up and down arrow keys to select the type of service that you are measuring. 4. Press when finished. 5. Press to start the measurement for DSL noise.
  • Page 11 Dynatel Advanced Modular System 965AMS 30-MHz Spectrum Analyzer ™ ™ DSL>DSL Noise>Operation 7. Press Select Metallic measure metallic noise. DSL>DSL Noise>Application Notes Noise can affect wideband services by taking up valuable bandwidth and reducing speed. Symptoms of high noise can be data errors and loss of connection.
  • Page 12 Dynatel Advanced Modular System 965AMS 30-MHz Spectrum Analyzer ™ ™ Metallic Noise is a measured between Tip [A] and Ring [B]. Metallic Noise measures the active noise on a pair. Both tests are performed through filters based on the service that is selected in Setup.

    Dynatel Advanced Modular System 965AMS 30-MHz Spectrum Analyzer ™ ™ DSL>DSL Spectrum Analyzer>Application Notes Spectrum analysis allows you to visually see a disturbing signal’s shape by reading and displaying the level of noise in a frequency range. The shape can be caused by ADSL, ISDN, HDSL, T1 or VDSL. This chart shows the ADSL2+ spectrum with common disturbers and chart 2 shows the VDSL spectrum with potential disturbers.

  • Page 19: Dsl Impulse Noise

    Dynatel Advanced Modular System 965AMS 30-MHz Spectrum Analyzer ™ ™ DSL>DSL Impulse Noise Use Impulse Noise to measure short spikes of random amplitude and random frequency. These short bursts can damage data transmission if the amplitude and frequency are spiking into used transmission paths.

  • Page 22 Dynatel Advanced Modular System 965AMS 30-MHz Spectrum Analyzer ™ ™ DSL>DSL Impulse Noise>Application Notes Since impulse hits, noise and other power related interference can fluctuate during the day you have the option of measuring three different levels. If you traditionally measure Impulse hits at a threshold of 40 dBrn, then select a count threshold of 32 and a spread of 2 dB, then you will be able to see any hits that exceed 32, 36 or 40.
