POTS SPLITTERS, STRUCTURED CABLING AND CPE ATTENUATOR ADSL/ADSL2+ CONNECTIVITY SOLUTIONS POTS Splitters, Structured Cabling and CPE Attenuator PRODUCT OVERVIEW Allied Telesyn addresses the Noise and Crosstalk KEY FEATURES As ADSL technology and applications evolve, problems by exceeding industry standards at all • Comprehensive product line that exceeds new burdens are placed on the cable plant points on the connectivity chain- from the CPE to industry performance standards and other components.While these links in the the Multiservice Access Platform. ADSL delivery chain were often overlooked in • Addresses key ADSL connectivity issues: 1st generation ADSL rollouts, their importance ADSL/ADSL2+ POTS SPLITTERS Noise and Crosstalk grows as downstream bit rates exceed 24Mbps. Allied Telesyn POTS Splitters separate ADSL from • Designed to ensure performance of ADSL2+ New services, such as video, compound the voiceband signals to prevent interference with • Suitable for CO and outside plant deployment challenge because they require high data POTS service. Allied Telesyn’s newest High rates that must be durable and predictable Performance POTS Splitter is designed specifically to ensure high service quality. to solve Noise and Crosstalk issues introduced by the higher frequency signals used by ADSL2+. These dynamics bring renewed light to the Both POTS splitters complement the 7X00/9X00 nuts and bolts of ADSL implementation, Multiservice Access Platforms and are fully com- details that can spell the difference between patible with existing copper wiring. marketplace success and failure. STRUCTURED CABLE SYSTEM NOISE AND CROSSTALK Allied Telesyn’s Structured Cabling System is a The most critical issues to account for family of wiring products designed to reduce in designing an advanced ADSL solution ADSL crosstalk and increase isolation between are Noise and Crosstalk. copper pairs.When used in conjunction with the 7X00/9X00 Multiservice Access Platforms, Service Noise is an extraneous signal that corrupts Providers can deliver more flexible and more the transmission bearer signal and interferes reliable ADSL services to more subscribers. with data transmission. Noise may be generated from within the transmission equipment and/or CPE ATTENUATOR externally by transient pulses from other services. The CPE Attenuator is a passive device that Noise may also be generated externally from links an ADSL/ADSL2+ modem to the local adjacent ADSL circuits.This form of Noise is copper loop. It improves performance by also called is “Crosstalk.” limiting susceptibility to crosstalk from neighboring loops, ensuring that the loop Any form of Noise can degrade an ADSL signal, does not enter power-cutback mode. but Crosstalk is the most problematic because it may originate from connectors, from cables as well as from within some networking equipment. Eliminating Noise and Crosstalk from an advanced ADSL network is critical, and requires products designed for that purpose.
