Extended Signatures

Celerity XS software license provides the capability to detect equipment signatures, termination signatures and loop signatures that specifically affect DSL performance. These signatures can indicate conditions that are necessary to support DSL, or affect DSL performance. Common elements in the network that can be signaturized and detected are:

Signature detection can apply to DSL qualification, provisioning and service assurance processes.

For qualification, identifying DSL-affecting signatures in advance of customer commitment provides an indication of the conditioning work required to put a line in service. Customers can be intelligently notified of the timeline and work required when ordering the service.

Prior to a customer self install, provisioning verification can be performed to ensure that splitters have been installed and the loop is ready for DSL service, reducing the number of installation failures and resulting trouble calls and dispatches.

The service assurance process requires that equipment and terminations be identified when trouble reports are received. Identifying equipment, termination and line signatures completes the picture of the network’s condition.

These signature detection capabilities are enabled by patented LDU swept frequency techniques, which maintain fast test times while providing measurements that expose copper conditions and the presence or absence of DSL enabling or impairing equipment.
