TAS 100 Puts the World’s Telephone
Networks at Your Fingertips
Pre-defined network conditions for many countries
can be recalled at the touch of a button! TAS 100
also includes pre-defined
transmission impairments conditions
according to published Electronic
Industries Association (EIA)
specifications. Non-volatile storage
is provided for user-defined test
conditions.
TAS 100 Complies With U.S. and
International Standards for Modem
and Fax Testing
The TAS 100 Series meets or exceeds impairment
generation specifications put forth by EIA/TIA, ITU
(CCITT), Nippon Telephone and Telegraph (NTT),
AT&T, Bell System, RITT (China), and U.S.
Department of Defense. Built-in ROM files include
setups for standard test conditions to assure
compliance with existing and emerging
test standards.
No Other Solution Packs So Much
Testing Power Into A Single, Compact
Enclosure
TAS 100 Series Telephone Network Emulators give
you complete, bi-directional impairments emulation
(models 182 and 192) and fully automatic, dual
central office emulation, all in one compact package.
Unidirectional impairments models (151) are
upgradable to full impairments without adding
additional boxes.
TAS 100 Is Easy To Set Up
and Easy To Use
All TAS 100 operations are accessible via easy to
use front panel menus. TAS 100 also provides a
straightforward, logical set of remote commands
to facilitate remote control via RS-232 or GPIB. If
you’re designing your own automatic test software,
you’ll find that programming the TAS 100 is a
breeze.
TAS 100 Employs Advanced Digital Signal
Processing Technology Throughout for
Unsurpassed Accuracy, Repeatability, and
Reliability
The TAS 100 Series provides precise, all-digital
emulation of transmission impairments and call
progress tones for precisely repeatable test results.
Digital processing yields extremely low background
noise, so you get accurate test results even at the
lowest signal levels. Digital processing also yields
high reliability, because the overall component count
is kept to a minimum.
All-digital impairments mean rock-solid compatibility
among TAS 100 family members. TAS 100
impairments are compatible with IEEE 743-1984
specifications to facilitate easy verification of emulator
performance using standard measuring equipment.
Built-In Diagnostic Routines Insure the
Integrity of Your Test Results
Built-in diagnostics check the performance of all TAS
100 subsystems. TAS 100 executes a complete set
of self-diagnostics auto-matically upon power-up,
and upon user command.
The Icing on the Cake... Advanced
Measurement and Monitor Features!
The convenient Network Status Monitor shows call
progress status at a glance. TAS 100 also includes
several measurement functions to allow complete
evaluation of DCE performance.
These include:
■ True-RMS Level Meter
■ Dialed Digit Monitor/Display
■ Scope Monitor Port
■ Audio Monitor
Pre-defined network
conditions for many
countries can be recalled at
the touch of a button!
