The SunSet MTT (Modular Test Toolkit) helps ensure timely
delivery of a variety of access network services. With more than 35 test modules
now shipping, the handheld SunSet MTT provides field technicians the industry's
broadest selection of test options needed to install, verify, and troubleshoot a
wide variety of service technologies. The SunSet MTT family is
comprised of various chassis configurations allowing you to match your testing
needs and budget. The SunSet MTT ACM (Advanced Cable Maintenance) chassis offers
a powerful combination of cable maintenance and service verification testing,
along with a high resolution color display. The SunSet MTT Basic Colour chassis
is the economic choice for those who need service verification testing without
the cable maintenance features. Metropolitan ethernet
Increased broadband deployment to homes and businesses, along with faster core
technologies, are driving demand for Metropoliltan Ethernet and storage
services. There's a serious need to deploy and optimize metro networks, quickly
and inexpensively. The SunSet MTT meets that need. With test modules for
Ethernet, Gigabit Ethernet, and Fibre Channel, the SunSet MTT provides a
cost-effective platform for testing in the metro.
Multi-tasking The huge range of plug-in interface modules
allows an engineer with an MTT unit to tackle a wide range of test applications
- and troubleshoot at multiple levels - from physical to IP. Follow the links in

SSMTT-29 Gigabit Ethernet Module
The SSMTT-29 Gigabit
Ethernet Module, part of the SunSet® Modular Test Toolkit (MTT) family of
products, is a rugged, battery-operated handheld test solution for the
installation and maintenance of Metro Ethernet and IP services. A complete set
of testing capabilities makes the SSMTT-29 ideal for the fi eld technician who
needs to verify end-to-end transport of Gigabit Ethernet/IP traffi c, perform
BER tests, determine throughput, link utilization, round trip delay, and IP
connectivity.
