  • Page 235: Resistance

    You measure resistance to test line continuity and quality, and to detect corrosion, shorts, opens, and faults. The OneExpert DSL is able to measure resistance in the presence of noise and foreign voltage, but the accuracy may be reduced, depending on the noise level.

  • Page 239: Tdr

    Velocity of Propagation (VoP) is the speed of the TDR signal traveling down the wire pair relative to the speed of light. The OneExpert DSL uses this value to convert reflections to distance. To ensure an accurate distance calculation at the cursor, the VoP should match the cable gage and fill.

    Impulse noise is used to check for the presence of noise spikes that disrupt digital services. TX/RX Tones You use tones to check cable performance (attenuation) at higher frequen- cies used for digital services (wideband) or in voice frequencies (narrow- band).

  • Page 242: Utilization Graph

    If the channel view shows utilization in the wrong channels, the likely issue is that a high energy 802.11 transmitter is very close to the OneExpert DSL. For example, a high energy 802.11ac transmitter is using channels 149, 153, 157, and 161. The channel view should show utilization in these chan- nels only.

    The systems are designed to be inter-operable, but Bluetooth will impact throughput. Channels can “bleed over” into adjacent channels. The width of the signal (due to RF considerations) can affect nearby channels. This bleed over is treated as noise. OneExpert DSL User’s Guide November 2015 22052280, Rev 006 Page 219...
