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
