Sunrise Telecom Introduces GTT

By Anshu Shrivastava, TMCnet Contributing Editor

Sunrise Telecom (News - Alert) Incorporated -- a provider of test and measurement solutions for telecom, wireless and cable networks -- has introduced the GTT, an all-in-one portable handheld test set designed to speed accurate verification of home networks for triple play deployments.



 
For the first time, field technicians can rely on one, compact test set for virtually every home network testing requirements including Ethernet, WiFi, HomePNA (News - Alert) and home wiring, according to Sunrise officials.
 
The GTT eliminates the need for multiple, single-purpose test sets and ensures that comprehensive installation and maintenance testing can be completed in a single trip.
Officials explained that GTT meets both the test requirements of Next-generation Networks (NGN) and service providers’ need to reduce capital expenditures.
 
Bahaa Moukadam (News - Alert), vice president of marketing at Sunrise Telecom’s Telecom Products Group, commented in a statement, “The GTT is the right product, delivered at the right time, to address the urgent need of increasing installation technicians' efficiency, and reducing the time required to turn up next-generation services.”
 
He claimed that the GTT is the industry’s only home network testing product to include Predictive Next Step Logic, which makes it ideal for both trained technicians seeking in-depth analysis and less skilled users who can rely on step-by-step instructions to guide them through the troubleshooting process.
 
The intuitive menu and automatic “go-no-go” test routines reduce technician training time, increase effectiveness and expedite precise installations, according to Moukadam.
 
The GTT verifies networks, tests wiring and cables, validates connectivity, tests WiFi (News - Alert) signal strength and generates reports detailing the results of each installation, which can be uploaded for future analysis.
 
The GTT includes Home Wiring Testing that identifies shorts, grounds and cable terminations, checks cable loss, verifies POTS voltage and places calls.
 
In addition, it also features HomePNA Analysis that validates HomePNA copper and coaxial connectivity and performance for the entire HPNA network by measuring Signal to Noise Ratio (SNR), throughput and packet loss.
 
Additionally, it comes with WiFi that verifies signal strength, channel conflicts and provides a list of available channels.

connectivity
 
The GTT test system will be available at the end of March 2008 from Sunrise Telecom.
