The Exfo AXS-625 Triple-Play Test Set is a handheld platform engineered for field testing of triple-play services—VoIP, IP video, and high-speed internet—across DSL and Ethernet infrastructures. It delivers copper line analysis to 30 MHz for VDSL2 prequalification and deployment, with backward compatibility to ADSL2+. The instrument combines DSL spectrum analysis, IP layer diagnostics, IPTV quality metrics, and VoIP call-flow monitoring to accelerate service turn-up, maintenance, and troubleshooting in a single integrated device.
## Technical Specifications
• **Copper and DSL Testing:** 30 MHz copper line analysis; ADSL1/2/2+ and VDSL2 support with full spectrum analysis to identify disturbances and interferers
• **DSL Performance Metrics:** Upstream and downstream data rates, attenuation, noise margin; 30 MHz Power Spectral Density (PSD) Noise feature for spectrum management
• **Waveband & Fault Analysis:** Time-Domain Reflectometry (TDR) and Frequency-Domain Reflectometry (FDR) for loop and fault location; POTS auto test, DMM tests, VF tests, and wideband tests
• **IPTV Analysis:** Packet jitter, packet loss, PCR jitter, Media Delivery Index (MDI), PID viewer, IGMP zap time; set-top box emulation; MDI reporting per RFC 4445; analog IPTV auto test
• **VoIP Analysis:** Residential call-flow monitoring and statistics; packet loss and jitter assessment for QoS assurance
• **IP Layer Testing:** Ping, traceroute, HTTP speed testing, FTP speed testing over Ethernet 10/100
• **Digital Multimeter:** AC and DC voltage measurements; capacitance testing
• **Operational Modes:** Terminate (stand-alone), through mode, and single-ended testing without remote device
• **Display:** Color screen with high brightness and clarity for graphs, bar graphs, and measurement results; sunlight-readable
• **Automation:** Pass/fail-driven testing with user-definable criteria; automated disturber identification via Spectral Detective
