Before starting a VoIP installation at the customer premises, MSOs need to be able to know that the quality of service on the POTS line is up to the highest standards, so that it doesn't compromise their VoIP performance. The 3M™ Dynatel™ Tester 945 DSP provides an easy and reliable way to test the quality of service of the POTS line before beginning the VoIP installation.

The ability to maintain data about line problems can be critical to MSOs whose VoIP installations may be effected by problems on the POTS line. The 3M™ Dynatel™ Tester 946-PT expands the data storage capabilities of the 945 DSP tester by enabling storage of up to 10 sets of test results, as well as providing the ability to review results onscreen and to upload stored results to a PC. This data can be invaluable in situations of potential liability for the MSO by clearly demonstrating when the pre-existing POTS line is the source of a problem.

A variety of even more sophisticated tools are available from 3M for more complex diagnostic needs.
