The Broadband Stimulus initiative creates jobs, improves infrastructure and helps the American economy by bringing high-speed communications to underserved rural areas. Networks must be built out quickly and cost-effectively. Fiber, coax or other connectivity must be deployed to the access level in remote areas where service could not be provided

economically in the past. The last mile may lie across fields or up mountain slopes to serve a handful of users, with wireless being the only practical choice. Continuous testing and measurement of links and equipment is an essential part of the process. The above chart shows where Anritsu instruments are at work.

Anritsu products for Metro network testing

The higher your connection is in the broadband ecosystem, the more important QoS standards become. Typically existing and new networks from multiple carriers, using a variety of media, must be joined and transformed into a permanent network. Thats where Anritsu instruments excel. Anritsus network testing tools offer high resolution to see connections at close range, while also certifying long spans quickly and accurately. Power meters and modular testers combine speed and sensitivity for installation and troubleshooting applications. And because Anritsu products typically offer multiple test sets or application modules in a single instrument, its easier to carry all the measurement firepower you need to the remote site, get the job done, then move on to the next challenge.

Anritsu products for Access network testing

Whether its point-to-point wireless, WiMAX or another implementation, Anritsus spectrum analyzers and base station testers are ideally suited to last mile applications. Rugged, lightweight, designed for use in the wind and the rain, most instruments are handheld and can be carried up a tower with ease. Many are multipurpose solutions combining diverse capabilities in a single box, further easing the load on the tech and reducing the need for multiple instruments. And many Anritsu instruments feature a common interface so the users learning curve is reduced.
