Overview of standard applications

The standard applications are divided into three main groups:
• Applications for 2 Mbit/s signals
• Applications for 34 Mbit/s signals
• Applications for STM-1 signals
Each main group is linked to a separate "knowledge database". The "knowledge database"
contains information regarding error causes. You can add to and edit this information. Refer to
Section 2.6 "Creating and customizing applications", Page O-21 for details of how to do this.
Application name

& re-timing, full test (approx. 25 min)
Line 2 Mb/s, transparent (unframed),
no re-timing, full test (approx. 25 min)
Applications for 34 Mbit/s signals
Monitoring 34 Mb/s, full check
(approx. 25 min)
Line 34 Mb/s, unknown structure
Line 34 Mb/s, transparent
(unframed), full test (approx. 25 min)
Applications for STM-1 signals
Monitoring STM-1, full test (approx.
25 min)
Line STM-1, unknown structure
Line STM-1 VC-4, full check (approx.
25 min)
Line STM-1, Digital Radio, full check
(approx. 25 min)

Overview of standard applications
How to start the "ANT-20 NEXT" software, load an application and perform a
diagnosis is described in the "Operating" Chapter:
• Section 1 "For users in a hurry", Page O-1
• Section 2 "For advanced users", Page O-9
