Trilithic 1G DSP Catv meter Datasheet Specifications

All-In-One Maintenance Meter
Trilithic’s 1G DSP™ conveniently combines CATV, Gigabit Ethernet and Optical testing in a single meter for troubleshooting and maintenance of your entire HFC plant.

Maintaining the health of your plant can now be achieved with one instrument including everything needed for system wide testing. Elim inate the need for multiple instruments with CATV, Gigabit Ethernet, and Optical testing and save capital expenses at the same time.

Tailored for the challenges faced by maintenance technicians, this meter comes equipped with all of the powerful troubleshooting tools for the experienced tech, yet helps simplify decision making and streamlines standard processes and procedures for the more novice tech. This results in more efficient technicians, greater overall system health, and allows techs to continue using the same meter as they become more experienced.

Gigabit Ethernet Testing
Used in combination with either the MetroNet 5001™ or TLB-GbE™, the 1G DSP can achieve throughput testing speeds of up to 1 GbE using a dedicated test port.

The 1G DSP can perform either roundtrip or one-way measurements of Key Parameter Index (KPI) for full Ethernet service testing. With constant payload testing for Layer 2 through Layer 4, the 1G DSP is built for verification of both Ethernet Service Level Agreement (SLA) and Quality of Service (QoS) metrics.

Optical Power Measurement
The 1G DSP™ includes a single input port for measurement of single mode (1310 nm, 1490 nm, and 1550 nm) wavelengths with interchangeable FC, SC, and ST style adapters.

Next Gen Features
The 1G DSP features a large highresolution ultra-bright color touch screen interface, simple pass/fail indicators, and powerful autotest apps to streamline troubleshooting and make the technician’s job easier.

Everything about this next-gen meter was built with the technician in mind, from the included Bluetooth adapter for remote control of the meter via an iPad to the long battery life, quick charge time, and glow in the dark keypad for those dark, cramped spaces. This meter also includes a visual fault locator (VFL) that makes it easy for the technician to locate and identify loss points in patch cords, patch panels, and enclosures.

Autotest Apps
The 1G DSP features next generation autotest applications that practically walk the technician through a job. By performing standardized measurement tests at various required locations on the job site using custom test plans, channel plans and limit sets, the meter very clearly indicates (using color and symbols) what areas still need attention, before the technician leaves the job site.

Multi-user support allows technicians that work in various territories to easily switch channel plans and standardized autotest apps and test limits or login as a completely different user. The built-in web browser allows techs to upload job data in near real-time as well as transmit and receive channel plans, autotests, work orders, and firmware.

Leaving less room for entry error, this new simple user interface can translate into less training and more efficient time in the field for techs. Although the 1G DSP comes equipped with all of the required troubleshooting tools for an advanced maintenance technician, it also offers a higher comfort factor for novice technicians, reducing decision making in the field, which can ultimately result in more productive work days and more satisfied customers.

Justify ROI
Field operations managers can now easily verify that all their technicians are performing the proper tests and are doing so at the right place and time—in near-real time. The potential benefits include identifying techs who need additional training, improving team performance, reducing truck rolls, and cutting operating costs.

At a higher level, ViewPoint can deliver simple, standardized, system-wide reports and dashboards that can help a director or VP of technical operations view the entire operation at a glance to gain information that can be used to reduce service and repeat trouble calls.

Essentially, this integrated system approach allows cable operators to see much more of their plant-wide operations and use the information in practical ways. The insights can enable them to identify both localized problems and highlevel system issues to make decisions based on a clearer understanding of their overall operations and the associated ROI.

Combining 1G DSPs in the field with the new ViewPoint WFM Module in the back office, managers can view the health of their entire system—in near real-time, for total maintenance management.
