EXFO Cableshark P3

VF/DSL Cable Qualifier

EXFO CableSHARK P3 - POTS / DSL Tester

The CableSHARK P3 includes the necessary VF and broadband measurements for qualifying and troubleshooting a local loop such as loop holding/dialling, frequency response, time domain reflectometry (TDR), longitudinal balance, load coil detection, bridge tap detection, power spectral density, resistive fault location (RFL), noise and impulse noise measurements.

The CableSHARK P3 is the next-generation CO based VF/DSL cable qualification device for measuring and evaluating the local loop for DSL deployment. The CableSHARK P3 is easy to use and features precision single end line testing (SELT) capabilities. These SELT capabilities include ADSL data rate prediction (patent pending), SHDSL data rate prediction, VF band qualification, and an powerful time domain reflectometer (TDR). The CableSHARK P3 can qualify circuit characteristics up to 6 MHz CO. CPE modem emulation, including CPE-based IP testing, verify network connectivity beyond the local loop.
