How to measure transmission speed on adsl lines. Differences between DSL and Cable Internet Connections |
Updated 11/10/2017 06:07 What should be the main parameters and characteristics of the physical communication channel (dedicated line) necessary for using ADSL-technologies? Below are the main parameters and characteristics of the physical communication channel (leased line) required to use ADSL technology. Noise Margin(Noise immunity limit) - used as a criterion for assessing the condition of the line and determines the minimum limit at which the signal level is higher than the noise level. The noise immunity limit is a good indicator of line quality. The noise immunity limit for data transmission is 6 dB - this is the limit value below which an ADSL connection is not guaranteed at all. With noise immunity values below 6 dB, frequent communication interruptions are possible. Immunity limit parameter value Noise Margin[dB]:
When connecting an ADSL modem to a DSL switch, the relationship between the parameters of noise immunity, connection speed and line length is as follows:
Signal attenuation parameter value Attenuation[dB]:
Output Power(Output power) - shows the output signal power at the moment the modem is synchronized with the DSL switch. Typically the output power when sending data is 10. However, it may be lower due to power loss. RMS Noise Energy(root mean square value of the noise level) - shows the root mean square (rms) value of the noise level in the line. This indicator has a direct impact on the quality of data transmission. The value of the noise level in the line allows only an approximate assessment of the quality of the leased line, because For an accurate calculation, you need to know the maximum noise level at which the modem can establish an ADSL connection. RMS noise level RMS Noise Energy[dBm]:
To assess the quality of the line, you need to know the ohmic loop resistance leased line being used. Thus, for ordinary telephony, a loop resistance of no more than 1200 Ohms is required, for the use of ADSL no more than 1000 Ohms, and for the implementation of VoIP no more than 600 Ohms (approximate values). If the line loop resistance is more than 1000 Ohms, the operation of ADSL equipment is practically impossible. Description special teams intended for diagnosing a leased line in ADSL modems: Additional useful information By ADSL technologies you will find on the following sites: http://ru.wikipedia.org/wiki/ADSL and http://spblan.narod.ru/adsl/adsl_test.htm The article examines in detail the influence of various parameters on the speed and other characteristics of ADSL equipment.Abbreviation ADSL(Asymmetric Digital Subscriber Line) stands for "Asymmetric Digital Subscriber Line", which emphasizes the difference in exchange rates initially inherent in this technology in the directions to the subscriber and back. Asymmetry ADSL, at its core, involves the transfer of large volumes of information to the subscriber (video, data arrays, programs) and small volumes from the subscriber (mainly commands and requests). Equipment ADSL, located on the PBX, and subscriber ADSL modem, connected to both ends of the telephone line, form three channels: High-speed data transmission channel from the network to a computer (speed - from 32Kbit/s to 8Mb/s); high-speed data transmission channel from a computer to the network (speed - from 32Kbit/s to 1.5Mb/s); simple channel telephone communication, which carries regular telephone conversations. The data transfer speed depends on the length and quality of the telephone line. The asymmetric nature of the data transfer rate is introduced specifically, since a remote Internet user usually downloads data from the network to his computer, and in the opposite direction there are either commands or a data stream of significantly lower speed. To obtain speed asymmetry, the bandwidth of the subscriber end is also divided between channels asymmetrically. On the PBX side, a so-called access multiplexer should be located on the user line ADSL - DSLAM. This multiplexer selects subchannels from common channel and sends the voice subchannel to the PBX, and sends high-speed data channels to the router connected to DSLAM. One of the main advantages of technology ADSL compared to analog modems and protocols ISDN And HDSL- the fact that voice support does not in any way affect the parallel transmission of data over two fast channels. The reason for this effect is that ADSL is based on the principles of frequency division, due to which the voice channel is reliably separated from the other two data channels. The influence of cable parameters on the operation of ADSL equipment Primary line parameters:(real) Loop (pair) resistance, R [Ohm] from 10 to 1200 Insulation resistance, R [MOhm] more than 40 Loop inductance, L [mH] is usually not measured. Loop capacitance, C [nF] from 10 to 300 Capacitive asymmetry, C [nF] from 0 to 10, relative to ground. note: measure on the damaged cable digital multimeter insulation resistance and capacitance is impossible! This is the first sign of a wet cable, “brokenness”, asymmetry... Secondary line parameters:(basic) Signal attenuation. from 5dB to 20dB - the line is excellent. Noise level: RMS Noise Energy from -65dBm to -50dBm - excellent line. Line frequency response.(examples below) Note: With line noise levels ranging from -65dBm to -55dBm, normal equipment can operate over extreme distances. (up to 6 km or more with a core diameter of 0.5 mm) despite high signal attenuation (up to 50 dB) even at minimum parameters. Measuring equipment: CableSHARK reflectometer from Consultronics. Reflectometer “990DSL CopperPro” from FLUKE Networks. Multimeters APPA 101 and UNI-T UT70D First, let's look at what it looks like from the point of view ADSL modem ideal line. Twisted pair. 5Cat. 720m. (assembled on twists from pieces) Loop resistance 160 Ohms. (24AWG) Fig.1. Checking distance Figure 2 shows the results of testing the resulting line. note: DMT (Discrete Multi-Tone), information flow is divided into several channels, each of which is transmitted on its own carrier frequency using QAM. Typically, DMT splits the 4 kHz to 1.1 MHz band into 256 channels, each 4 kHz wide. This method by definition, it solves the problem of sharing bandwidth between voice and data (it simply does not use the voice part), but is more complex to implement than CAP. DMT is approved in ANSI T1.413 and is also recommended as the basis of the specification Universal ADSL. Fig.2. Line test results Note: The longer the distance, the greater the line resistance, the worse the frequency response and the higher the signal attenuation. This mainly affects the Downstream (middle and end of the chart), i.e. connection speed ADSL modem towards the subscriber. Real line: DSLAM and modem from SIEMENS. Real connection speed: The connection is stable. There is slight damage to the line: Using a reflectometer, you can “see” the damage. (presumably at a distance of 42.9 m it gets wet.) A little closer, the upward ejection is most likely an oxidized twist. Fig.3. Damaged line Fig.4. Noise on the line, mainly from the Mayak radio station (549KHz), etc. Fig.5. Noise in the line, (Fig. 4 for more details) Straight wire: DSLAM and modem from SIEMENS. Real connection speed: Factory cross, noodles, twists... a very long distance to the automatic telephone exchange. External factors affecting the operation of ADSL equipment All sorts of AVU lines, RF compaction, VDU signaling, and other DSL lines running in the same cable, in adjacent pairs, greatly interfere with the work. Especially if there are all sorts of cable defects, looseness/brokenness, cable getting wet, bends. All these devices create strong noise in the frequency range from 0 Hz to 100-200 KHz. (mostly) This causes a decrease in the outgoing signal ADSL (Upstream) up to its complete absence and, as a consequence, loss ADSL modem synchronization At working together DSL and RF seals in the same cable on different pairs can cause crosstalk that interferes with analog telephony operation. (noise in the range of 1KHz and above) Factory and industrial areas are greatly affected by all kinds of power equipment. Immediate proximity to the railway. Fig.7. Interference from AVU lines, Peterstar HF seals, VDU alarms As you can see in the graph, almost all the main noise is in the Upstream range. (beginning of the graph) The noise from the AVU lines and HF seals is constant, i.e. does not depend on the time of day. The alarm is usually activated from 19:00 to 09:00 and on weekends around the clock. Accordingly at this time ADSL works intermittently or doesn't work at all. Fig.8. Operation of power electrical equipment Very bad frequency response cable. High noise level, blocking almost the entire signal. Station part. DSLAM Damage to the connecting multi-pair cable from DSLAM to cross-plinths: Violation of installation technology crossover cable. For example: when another pair of wires is passed through a cross-over eye, which already has many other cross-overs. And they do this with such force that the dragged pair rips off/burns the insulation on adjacent cross-connections. As a result: short circuit of conductors of different pairs to each other or to the ground. Incorrect connection splitter/modem card in DSLAM. Incorrect connection of the splitter port to the line/station. Connecting a subscriber line to another DSLAM port. Sometimes they simply forget to make cross-connections. :) Equipment overheating. conclusions Line resistance directly depends on the distance. Therefore, knowing the resistance, you can quite accurately calculate the distance between the subscriber and the telephone exchange. Knowing reference data ADSL modem, you can estimate at what speed the modem will connect. Unfortunately that's all. To find out the secondary parameters of a line, complex, expensive equipment is required. There is also an opportunity to see the average signal attenuation on Upstream and Downstream streams in some ADSL modems : ZyXEL 650, Cisco 800 series, in USB ADSL modems and others. For example: at cable cross-section 0.5mm.sq. (0.085 Ohm/m) and loop resistance 1000 Ohm line length L = (1000/0.085)/2 = 5882 m. It should also be taken into account that in some areas the cable cross-section can be 0.4 mm.sq (0.133 Ohm/m) Thus. for modem ZyXEL 645R theoretical speed - 64 kbit/s another example: Distance 5.5 km At loop resistance 800 - 1000 Ohms the probability of failures/instabilities is very high. (in any case, 100% reliability cannot be guaranteed) It depends on your luck with the main cable. There are cases when the ZyXEL 645R works with minor glitches on a line with a resistance of 1200 - 1400 Ohms. You can easily ruin a link even with a resistance much less than 800 Ohms. As a rule, this is everyone’s favorite “clove noodles” on the subscriber’s side. The maximum operating frequency is 180 kHz and, if desired, you can stir up 10BaseT through bleach (two pairs) ... but at what distance? Old soviet telephone sockets. A kind of plug with a 1uF x 160V capacitor inside. The new ones, by the way, also do not shine with quality. The RJ11 plug made in China simply falls out of the sockets “Zrobleno in Belarus”. I haven’t seen RJ11 plugs made in Belarus, so such sockets are immediately thrown into the trash. In apartments and offices with high humidity (old stock), the resistance of oxidized contacts can reach several hundred Ohms. Sometimes narrow-minded “telephone operators” can make a telephone connection to an office/apartment through a forgotten radio input. The distribution box left over from the radio point. (a resistance of 300 Ohms is soldered onto each wire) You can also look for diode blockers on the landing in the panel (if the line was paired a long time ago). We get a funny effect: the ADSL modem only works when the phone is off-hook. Or a forgotten HF filter from a private security alarm system. If the line passes through the crossroads of an old plant/enterprise, then you get additional bonuses in the form: Four thermals per line. each has a resistance of 25-50 Ohms + inductance. Parallel line branches to other workshops, intermediate cross-connections, couplings, etc. System "Granite", against eavesdropping. Through it, the operation of Dial-UP equipment is difficult, and you can completely forget about ADSL. Particular clinical cases: Well, the simplest thing: At loop resistance more than 1000 Ohms, the operation of an ADSL modem is almost impossible. Line parameters by DC for connecting ADSL equipment Parameters For telephony For ADSL installation For VoIP installation Loop resistance, (approximately) 1200 Ohm Up to 1000 Ohm Up to 600 Ohm Capacitance between cores Not defined No more than 0.25 µF No more than 0.15 µF Insulation resistance, (A-Z, B-Z) Not less than 1000 MOhm/km Not less than 1000 MOhm/km Not less than 1000 MOhm/km Insulation resistance between conductors Not less than 1000 MOhm/km Not less than 1000 MOhm/km Not less than 1000 MOhm/km Capacitive asymmetry relative to ground, (A-Z, B-Z) Not defined No more than 5% No more than 5%How do Internet DSL services differ from a cable Internet connection? What is the difference between the two technologies? Read on to find out. The Internet is a technological marvel that continues to be valued all over the world, and has recently become a necessity for most of us. Yes, the Internet is no longer a luxury; it is rather one of the basic needs of today's generation. It is a great communication platform and also a huge information base. He brought information from all over the world, just one click. Internet did long distance communication, a matter of a few minutes. How does data transmission over the Internet occur? What are various ways, in which Internet access can be carried out? Here we will look at two popular ways to make connecting to the Internet easier. One is usually using DSL and another cable Internet connection. Let's also look at the difference between DSL and cable Internet communication technologies. Digital Subscriber Line (DSL) The DSL transceiver performs a self-test, after which it checks the connection from the computer to which it is connected. The transceiver then attempts to synchronize with the digital subscriber line access multiplexer (DSLAM), which allows telephone lines to connect to the Internet. The synchronization process is not fast, but it is complex and includes several tests to optimize performance depending on the line used. Once the synchronization process is complete, the computer can communicate with the Internet. The modem establishes an IP connection between local network and Internet service provider. Cable Internet Connection Difference The security models implemented by DSL and cable Internet connections are different from each other. Cable networks have recently improved their security measures. But both DSL and cable Internet connections to meet the security needs of users. Cable Internet in the US costs less compared to DSL connections in terms of customer satisfaction, but both technologies are popular. This was an overview of the two main technologies used to connect to the Internet. Tips for choosing one of them, you can go through a comparative study of DSL vs cable modem. |
