Inside Wiring and Networks Service Meter
Key Benefits
• Reduce OpEx by decreasing the time that it takes to install
and maintain video services
• Reduce CapEx by combining all necessary tests into one
complete, easy-to-use, battery-operated, field optimized test
set that can test in the field, at the NID, and in the Home
• Avoid the complexity of copper testing with one-button
Pass/Fail CableCheck functionality that includes balance
testing and good ground capabilities
• Improve efficency by saving all test results for further analy-
sis and storage
The SmartClass Home v3 handheld service meter enables verification of high-
speed digital subscriber line (ADSL-VDSL2) and Home Phoneline Networking
Alliance (HPNA) networks as well as the internal wiring at the customer premises
for proper operation of voice, video, and data services. Use the SmartClass Home
to test xDSL to the side of the premises, HPNA inside the premises, as well as the
coax and twisted pair wiring inside of the subscriber’s location. The SmartClass
Home provides an easy-to-use, accurate, and economical measurement tool for
service technicians who install or troubleshoot triple-play services over existing or
new networks.
The SmartClass Home includes a unique set of features to completely qualify the
subscriber’s premises for triple-play services that use xDSL and HPNA technolo-
gies as well as the physical media to deliver communication signals throughout the
site. Technicians can use the Coax Map feature and the Noise Immunity Test to
assess quality and to troubleshoot issues in a coax network. The Active ID can de-
lineate multiple runs of coax in the building even through coaxial splitters. They
can use the integrated wiring tools to qualify twisted pairs, including Cat3, Cat5,
Cat5e, and Cat6 cables. The SmartClass Home saves time and effort in verifying
and troubleshooting inside wiring problems before subscribers notice them.
The SmartClass Home also includes a unique feature set for testing Ethernet data
networks in residential and small-to-medium-sized business (SMB) locations.
The built-in 802.11b/g wireless feature ensures correct WiFi functionality in and
around subscriber locations. Additional features include a fully functional built-
in butt-set that can test POTS voice delivery along with wiring identification and
toning to locate and identify cables. Combined with an easy-to-use menu struc-
ture, the features of the SmartClass Home represent the best all-in-one service and
wiring tester available.
