Site optimization -
Our field crews use very effective site optimization procedures.
They conduct a detailed assessment of a site and provide a
full report on non-optimal areas. This is followed by a thorough
examination of transmission lines and connectors, transmitter
power, antenna down tilt and azimuth, spectrum emission mask,
multicoupler and combining network tuning, DC battery cell
short check and grounding resistance. Corrections are then
made and the system is tuned to optimal values. While on-site,
we also conduct a general site review to look for signs of
moisture, corrosion, animal damage and other anomalies.
Sweep
testing - Trylon TSF field crews are trained in the use
of HP and Wiltron test gear, and routinely sweep lines and
antennas from 800 MHz to 38 GHz. Sweep testing reports include
full details of each test conducted.
Bit
Error Rate - Our microwave installations typically include
a Bit Error Rate. Field staff use TTC test equipment, provide
additional tests based on your specification, and compile
test results in a final report.
DC
load testing - Following installation of 48VDC power systems,
we perform a DC load test using a compatible load bank for
the testing.
Path
surveys - A physical path survey is an effective way to
confirm theoretical calculations of the microwave path. Our
field technicians understand the importance of a reliable
path survey and can detail a planned microwave path to confirm
your path assumptions.
OTDR
testing - It's critical to quickly pinpointing problems
in your optical network. Our field crews will conduct OTDR
testing on your fiber cables to assure they provide a quality
path in your network from end to end.
RF
coverage - We confirm the success of site optimization
efforts with an actual field drive test confirming the coverage
of your site.
RF
Safety - Regulatory authorities in the US and Canada will
be enforcing the limits of RF exposure of antenna sites. As
a site operator, you'll be required to meet RF safety limit
requirements. We can perform the appropriate tests and provide
a third-party assessment.
Testing
and troubleshooting - Our experience installing and commissioning
a wide variety of technologies is useful when troubleshooting
your network's complex technical problems.
