With dedicated chipsets for both VDSL2 and ADSL2/2+, intec’s new handheld tester provides top performance, high interoperability and a long reach – all at a very reasonable price.
DSL installers looking for an attractively priced yet top-quality solution for the testing of data communications and telephony will find the ARGUS 141 has everything that meets their requirements. The new handheld tester for VDSL2 and ADSL2/2+, optionally capable of download and Voice over IP testing, was presented at the Voice + IP Germany trade fair in Frankfurt am Main for the first time.
Quality is a top priority in all intec’s solutions – so the new ARGUS 141 comes equipped with the most up-to-date ADSL chipset on the market. As the only vendor, intec has furthermore provided the ARGUS 141, like its other xDSL solutions, with separate chipsets for VDSL2 (all profiles) and ADSL (Annex A, B and M) interfaces. Only on this basis can top performance, high interoperability and a long reach, for use in a variety of application situations, be reliably guaranteed. As in the past, users will benefit from the ease of operation – based on a large-scale colour display and intuitive menu controls. A powerful pack of lithium ion batteries guarantees a long service life.
The ARGUS 142, the new all-round analyser from intec, quickly and reliably checks the interfaces and services provided via the last mile. With an ARGUS 142, one can easily test VDSL, ADSL, Ethernet as well as ISDN and POTS – without swapping modules.
Testing the telecom network – is intec's motto for its new ARGUS 142 universal ADSL and VDSL tester. Easy to carry at just 730 grams (ca. 1.6 lbs), nonetheless it is an all-rounder. The ARGUS 142 is equipped with a color display and is ready for operation in just 9 seconds. Depending on the application, this tester can run for up to 9 hours between charges. It not only tests the interfaces, but also the services running on it. The ARGUS 142 offers features for setting up and clearing malfunctions on VDSL, ADSL (Annex A & B) and Ethernet interfaces. It can also be used as a lineman’s handset for POTS, as an ISDN test set to test BRI S/T and U interfaces as well as the physical characteristics of the subscriber's line. The ARGUS 142 is available as of September 2009.
Powerful Performance – Fast Analysis
With its separate chipsets for ADSL and VDSL, the ARGUS 142 is unique. Whether the unit is used as a DSL tester, as an ISDN tester or POTS butt set, the new ARGUS masters every application and quickly delivers the most important results.
Depending on the application, the test results can be displayed as a brief summary or a detailed report. Because the tester – having set thresholds – can automatically rate the quality of the line as “OK" or "Not OK“. If a more precise and detailed analysis is needed one can view the data in a graphic form e.g. of the bits per tone distribution. Various network statistics are utilized to evaluate the quality of service (QoS) of Triple Play applications. As an example, the protocols associated with VoIP calls are analysed and the result is used to determine the MOS value. The actual voice quality of ISDN, POTS and VoIP phone calls can be evaluated using the integrated handset.
As is the case with a VoIP test, it is also possible to examine and assess the results of a ping, download or IPTV test. For analysis and processing at a later time, all test results can be stored in one of the 50 memory locations.
