DSL (Digital Subscriber Line)
The DSL functions include: DSL Loss, DSL Noise, DSL
Spectrum Analyzer, Resistive Balance, and DSL Impulse Noise.
DSL>DSL Loss
Use DSL Loss function to measure the amount of loss in a
circuit at a specific frequency. This is typically accomplished
by sending tone with another 965AMS, a 3M™Dynatel™Far
End Device (FED), or test equipment that is capable of sending
wideband tone from 20 kHz to 30 MHz.

DSL>DSL Loss>Operation
1. Press the blue DSL key
to enter the DSL function.
Use the up and down arrow
keys to select DSL Loss.
Use a tone source at the
far end that is capable of
sending a known output
level such as a 965AMS.
Use 0dBm as the output
level or follow your method
of test.
2. Press DSL Setup to select
the type of service.
3. Use the up and down
arrow keys to select the
type of service that you are
measuring.
4. Press OK when finished.

displayed as a –dBm level
at a specific frequency.
DSL>DSL Loss>Application Notes
DSL Loss measures the signal lost from a tone transmitter
(965AMS, 3M™Dynatel™Far End Device (FED) or other
capable device) to the measuring 965AMS.
High loss is an indication of:
1. A loop that is too long for the potential service.
2. Bridge tap.
To get a complete picture of loss, it is recommended that you use
a FED that will generate a sweep of frequency for the service
type. The sweep will indicate either a good circuit, high loss or
dips in the reading can be an indication of bridge tap. The image

below is a sweep that was performed with a 965AMS, a 3M™
Dynatel™Far End Device FED II and the selected service was
ADSL2.
Look at the before and after for these two readings. When
the bridge tap is removed then the slope no longer displays
frequency dips.
