When outside plant augmentation and maintenance are not enough, Comtest can help with components designed for data networks.
Comtest line conditioners help solve chronic network issues using differential signalling and balancing cable-pairs.
Learn how EMI affects xDSL quality →Innovative Comtest components give copper networks the performance boost required by the increasing demand for data network services.
How your existing network can benefit →Pair balance consists of the same inductance and resistance per unit length for tip and ring as well as same capacitance and resistance of the linear wire from tip and ring to ground.
Unbalanced pairs allow EMI to thrive and can create many different problems with DSL
Comtest splitters with EMI filter perform two essential functions:
Differential signaling offers an increased resistance to electromagnetic noise.
Resistance to electromagnetic noise is achieved only if twisted pairs are balanced.
n the real word, rarely are twisted pairs completely balanced.
Figure 1 represents the average bits per tone graph without Comtest line conditioners in place; each of the red lines represents a “tone range” where data bits could not be slotted because of an interferer on the line.
Figure 2 is the same line with Comtest line conditioners in place. Significant reduction in noise and/or interferers results in higher sync rates (more tone ranges to slot data bits) and better performance overall.
