SunSet xDSL

The Industry's Broadest Set of DSL and Wireline Access
Verification Solutions in a Portable Test Set

Incredible versatility in a handheld test set
The SunSet xDSL applies powerful concepts in test modularity to the handheld test set arena. Through this flexible platform you can assemble the industry’s most powerful handheld Digital Subscriber Line (DSL) test set, a simple inexpensive modem-emulation test set, a traditional T1 test set with HDSL applications, or the industry’s most versatile handheld test set by combining all of these and more. The SunSet xDSL allows you to perform work formerly requiring 2 or 3 people, improving productivity, eliminating wasted time, reducing truck rolls for a service turn up, speeding up successful delivery of service, and improving customer satisfaction. You can acceptancetest a wide variety of services and enjoy powerful diagnostic capabilities for quickly determining the cause and location of failed service.

Take a look at some of these special capabilities:
The SunSet xDSL contains the world’s first handheld spectrum analyzer for twisted pair applications. The set also incorporates wideband transmission testing, Time Domain Reflectometer (TDR), load coil detector, and Digital Multimeter (DMM). A selection of DSL modems lets you most closely gauge the true rate and noise margins attainable by the customer. A Voice Frequency TIMS module lets you test VF transmission, draw dial tone, and place calls. Best of all, the modular platform extends the life of your test equipment investment by helping you add new test technologies over time without having to buy an entirely new set. Imagine doing so much of your telco testing capably on your own with just a single, convenient test tool.

A fast, simple acceptance test is needed to handle the great majority of ADSL services that turn up trouble free. With the Sunset xDSL, all you need to do is press a power button, connect to your circuit, and read the display. In this one-button acceptance test, the set emulates a modem and turns up a link with the far end. It then automatically displays the rate and margin information for your review. Additional troubleshooting capability helps you when the modem fails or when the rate/margin readings are unsatisfactory, but in most cases, you are in and out quickly. You can also add a second step to this test by pinging the far end gateway router to verify completion of virtual circuit provisioning.

Sunrise Telecom gives you the world’s first handheld test set with plug-in software module, plug-in memory expansion card, and plug-in hardware modules. You assemble just the capabilities you want with unparalleled flexibility. Your test set investment endures the test of time with the ability to upgrade to new technologies as they evolve. For software upgrades, all you need to do is order a new software option. You’ll then receive a new software card with an enclosed, self-addressed envelope. Simply enclose the old one and mail it back. For memory intensive applications, you can order the accompanying memory module. For new test modules that meet your latest requirements, simply order the desired plug-in module. You can quickly install the new module or card yourself without sending your test set back to the factory for an expensive and time-consuming retrofit. The extra test modules remain securely inside their storage cases in the accompanying carry case. Your total test equipment investment goes down with a wider variety of test technologies in a small, cost-effective platform. A common user interface simplifies testing, too.

The SunSet xDSL helps ensure timely delivery of Digital Subscriber Line service. The modular chassis supports a variety of plug-in modules that address a number of different transmission technologies, including ADSL, IDSL, SDSL, HDSL, Voice Frequency, and Datacom. Additionally, powerful Cable Maintenance Testing (CMT) features enable comprehensive cable quality measurements. Best of all, the SunSet xDSL can be tailored to suit your needs.


The SunSet xDSL, in its 3 lb (1.36 Kg) platform, provides incredible versatility for a handheld test set. Plug-in modules allow you to customize the test set for your specific needs. The modular platform significantly extends the life of your test equipment investment; you simply modify your test set with a new plug-in module whenever new technologies evolve.
