HP 79000 FCT Functional Communications Board Test System

HP 79000 FCT Functional Communications Board Test System: for today's communications manufacturers.

The HP 79000 FCT Functional Communications Test System provides manufacturers with the highest throughput, shortest test development times, and maximum flexibility to test today's, and tomorrow's wired access loop electronics. The HP 79000 FCT can be configured to functionally test xDSL, POTS, ISDN, pair gain, HFC electronics--all in the same system.

With HP Performance Port technology, bring signals up to 2 GHz up to your device under test with automatic mass interconnect. This technology can also provide pneumatic actuator control on the fixture.

With the optional HP Fault Detective on the HP 79000 FCT, you can reduce the cost of fault isolation at functional test by at least 50%. HP Fault Detective finds defects in seconds without specialized test equipment, highly skilled technicians, complex programming or simulation. It analyzes the functional test data you collect with your HP 79000 FCT and turns it into a clear diagnosis of failures at the component level.

The HP 79000 FCT is a functional test platform that contains most of the standard features needed in a functional test system. You can further customize the solution for your particular test application, but with perhaps 80% of the work already done, the customizing effort is significantly reduced. HP also provides several standard focused solutions, built upon the HP 79000 FCT platform, that provide turnkey measurement capability for certain common access loop products such as POTS, ISDN, E1/T1, SOHO routers, and ADSL modems.

For manufacturers who perform functional communications test we deliver:

Time to market
- Starting with a more highly integrated platform means that you have a test system completed far sooner.
- Cut the test development time significantly.
- Focused solutions (100% solutions) for the communications marketplace. These include solutions for more standard technologies such as POTS, ISDN, E1/T1, SOHO routers and ADSL modems.
Time to volume
- Standard system allows fast ramp-up through easy system replication
- Parallel architecture and throughput enhancements mean fewer systems are needed to meet production volumes
Time to profit
- Reduce your bone-pile with Fault Detective for DUT diagnosis and repair
- Lower cost of test, and lower cost of tester development, means faster time-to-profits
- Ability to scale the system means fewer systems are required during ramp-up - reduced cost means profits SOONER.
Confidence to ship off of the system
- High measurement quality and repeatability gives you the confidence that products are good
- High test coverage capability ensures that only good product is shipped
- Ease of system replication ensures that ALL of your test systems are the same - reduced variability in a test system means less variation in your product.
A price that allows faster time-to-profit than any competitive strategy.
