Triple-Play Test and Measurement
A Selection Guide for Headend Through Home Test Products
Delivering triple-play services that meet customer expectations
for both value and quality of experience (QoE) is today’s key
driver in service provider business strategy. Whether in a
“greenfield” or “overlay” environment, sustained market viability
demands that existing network infrastructure evolve to
withstand the rigors of rolling out and maintaining bandwidth-
intensive triple-play applications.
New IP-based video and voice elements in the Ethernet-based core
network (supported by MPLS/VPLS technology),the deployment of
broadband access networks that bring optical fiber near or to the
customer premises (FTTx), as well as new in-home distribution
technologies are integral to this evolution. Each facet of
infrastructure and application must interconnect seamlessly—
from the headend through the home—to ensure the QoE
customers expect. Regardless of how the triple-play building
blocks are stacked, solid network construction and reliable
operation depends on comprehensive planning and a well-defined
test and measurement strategy.
JDSU, the industry leader in broadband communications test and
measurement solutions, has set the standard for ensuring reliable
triple play over FTTx service deployment. The JDSU portfolio of
triple-play test and measurement solutions is unrivaled in breadth
