Verifying the Installation

5.2Verification with the Local Craft Tool

The LCT can be used without a connection to PEM or to any backbone network as described in section section Error! Reference source not found. on page Error! Bookmark not defined..

The LCT activates the IP DSLAMs (as well as providing an IP address to other nodes) and configures each IP DSLAM to start all the lines, and by using a CPE modem on each line, it is possible to verify that the ADSL connection is up and running. The registration process cannot be verified by using this method. Using the LCT is more time consuming than method 1, but not as time consuming as method 3.

The ECN320 Local Craft Tool

When the EDN312 IP DSLAM is embedded in an EAN as for example the EDN288 and connected to the ECN320 Ethernet Controller Node the line verification is done by means of the ECN320 Local Craft Tool. The ECN320 Local Craft Tool is an application used for checking the function of each IP DSLAM embedded in an EAN. When the ECN320 LCT has been connected to the ECN320 the line verfication is done by activating a line configuration script placed on the LCT, so the user starts a Windows Command Prompt, navigates to a folder with the script and activates the script. The following steps are taken:

1.Copy the 24 standard (“empty”) configuration files from the ECN320 flash disk to a folder on the LCT. The files are needed when reverting to the initial state.

EDN312, IP DSLAM specifications

Ericsson IP DSLAM EDN312 is a high-performance digital subscriber line access multiplexer designed to facilitate the delivery of broadband services over traditional copper telephone lines. As the demand for high-speed internet continues to rise, the EDN312 offers a robust solution that combines advanced technologies with a user-friendly interface, making it an essential component for many service providers.

One of the key features of the Ericsson IP DSLAM EDN312 is its ability to support multiple DSL technologies, including ADSL, ADSL2+, and VDSL2. This flexibility allows service providers to offer various broadband plans tailored to the needs of their customers, providing options for both residential and business users. The device's capability to handle multiple standards ensures that providers can meet varying demand without needing to upgrade their infrastructure constantly.

Another significant characteristic of the EDN312 is its high density, which allows for the connection of numerous subscribers per unit. With up to 384 subscribers supported, operators can maximize their investments by deploying fewer units while still delivering exceptional service quality. This high density is complemented by advanced line management features, which help optimize performance and maintain service reliability.

The EDN312 also incorporates sophisticated quality of service (QoS) mechanisms. This functionality enables operators to prioritize traffic effectively, ensuring that time-sensitive applications such as VoIP and video streaming perform seamlessly, even during peak usage periods. By prioritizing bandwidth allocation based on the type of services being delivered, the EDN312 enhances the overall user experience.

Moreover, the Ericsson IP DSLAM EDN312 is designed with energy efficiency in mind. Its innovative hardware and software solutions minimize power consumption, which is not only beneficial for the environment but also reduces operational costs for service providers.

In summary, the Ericsson IP DSLAM EDN312 stands out for its versatility, scalability, and performance. With support for multiple DSL technologies, high subscriber density, effective QoS mechanisms, and a focus on energy efficiency, it is an ideal solution for operators looking to enhance their broadband offerings while optimizing costs and maintaining high service quality. In a rapidly evolving digital landscape, the EDN312 enables service providers to navigate the challenges in delivering high-speed broadband with efficiency and reliability.
