About xDSL testing
The purpose of the DSL tests are to assess the quality of the xDSL signal and to verify the xDSL
rates achieved at various points in the network.
The tests involve three main steps:
•
selecting the test mode and specifying test settings
•
connecting to the line
•
running the tests
The ADSL/VDSL Bonding Option, order number ONX580-BONDED, is available for purchase.

CAUTION:
The modem has an exposed heat sink on the back of the instrument that must maintain unob-
structed contact with ambient air. If the heat sink is blocked in any way it can become extremely
hot, and modem performance can suffer. It is recommended that the unit not be operated flat on
its back (heat sink down), in any DSL mode, for more than 15 minutes.
