Case Studies

A broadband co-op in Iowa used TELECOM TEST TOOLS’s xDSL Testers to roll out VDSL2 services across previously underserved townships. Real-time SNR and attenuation measurement allowed them to pre-qualify loops and reduce failed installs by over 50%.

 A regional telecom provider in the Southwest upgraded its copper testing toolkit using TELECOM TEST TOOLS’s multi-service xDSL Testers. With simultaneous copper, DSL, and IP layer diagnostics, their technicians improved mean-time-to-repair (MTTR) by 40% in just six months.

In British Columbia, a utility offering residential broadband implemented TELECOM TEST TOOLS’s G.fast-compatible testers for new developments. The integration with their cloud-based work order system allowed technicians to close service tickets on-site, improving customer satisfaction and reducing service cycles.
