SmartER Splitters Comply with TR-127 for VDSL2 Triple Play Applications
The SmartER™ series of splitters have been tested and meet the new TR-127 standard for VDSL2 applications.
TR-127 is a technical report developed by the Broadband Forum to ensure the highest quality delivery of voice,
data, and video services (triple play) by maximizing the interoperability of splitters and in-line filters with digital
subscriber line access multiplexers (DSLAMs]) and modems. Telephone companies are now able to offer triple-
play services. The signals for all three are brought to the home through the phone company’s twisted-pair copper
telephone line. However, answering a ringing telephone can interfere with VDSL2 signals carrying High Definition
Video (HDV) to the consumer’s television, causing the television picture to pixelate or degrade. Pulse’s high-performance video-grade splitters
counteract “ring trip” video degradation and maintain video quality.
Pulse has implemented a complete test set-up for TR-127 to ensure that its products are fully in compliance with the new standard and has
verified that its SmartER ADSL/VDSL splitter modules are fully compliant with the TR-127 standard for VDSL2 applications. They are tested
during the design phase. Under TR-127 and under go a full system test as opposed to being tested in isolation. Until the TR-127 standard
was published there was no defined or accepted method of testing the quality of video grade splitters. By testing the system under real-life
conditions, the splitters can be designed to ensure high-quality video service without interruption from a telephone that uses that same line.
Splitters are the solution for the ring-trip problem, but only if they are of a high enough quality to meet the TR-127 standards.
Pulse Monopole Antennas Enable Multiple M2M Applications
A new set of monopole antennas delivers Zigbee 2.4 GHz and ISM bands 868 MHz and 915 MHz, and 2.4GHz. These
antennas are excellent alternatives to trace antennas. They occupy minimal board space while maintaining their key
properties regardless of changes to the board, providing a high-quality radio interface for multi-purpose M2M devices
and applications — data loggers, remote controls, tracking, monitoring, Smart Grid, AMR tags, remote keyless entry,
industrial, metering, security, automation, and POS. The monopole family of ceramic antennas consists of part numbers
W3000, W3014, W3016, and W3043.
With so many emerging applications in the M2M sector, designers need an antenna solution which accommodates different ground plane sizes
and product dimensions,” said Elaine Baxter, marketing manager, Pulse Wireless Devices Antenna Division. “Pulse‘s new range of ZigBee and
ISM band ceramic monopole antennas offer a comprehensive and flexible portfolio which can be matched to the majority of M2M applications.
They provide more reliability and higher performance than traditional trace antennas used on the PCB.
Pulse Power Bead Inductor Products are Halogen-Free
A full line of power bead products, used in voltage regulators for computing applications and point-of-load (PoL)
products, are now halogen-free. Halogen elimination is part of Pulse’s on-going initiative to comply with the
Registration, Evaluation, Authorization and Restriction of Chemical (REACH) regulation under EC 1907/2006.
Pulse’s halogen-free parts are identified by the suffix HL, indicating complisnce with both halogen-free and lead-
free standards. The first halogen-free series to be released was the PA0511, the most widely used power bead
inductor series. To request halogen-free parts, customers simply enter HL in place of NL as the part number suffix.
Pulse’s highly efficient, off-the-shelf power beads offer high performance for multi-phase buck regulator
applications. Their low direct current resistance (DCR) minimizes inductor conduction losses while their low-loss ferrite cores minimize
inductor switching losses. Plus, their small footprint enables flexibility in board layout. Power bead inductors come in through-hole and
surface mount configurations for use in power supplies for desktop and notebook computers, servers, graphics cards, and PoL applications.

The First DSL NanoFilter
The first digital subscriber line (DSL) NanoFilter. Pulse's Z-321NF is the world's smallest in-line DSL
customer premises equipment (CPE) MicroFilter. It offers both voice and data protection by isolating
DSL-band frequencies from voice-band equipment and telephone impedance changes from DSL
equipment, and provides DSL band attenuation that prevents inter-modulation distortion. The result is
excellent voice band quality and optimal DSL data rates. The Z-321NF was designed specifically for the
Southeast Asian, Indian, and Eastern European markets where 600
Ω
telephones are used.
Each parameter of this quality product was care-fully measured and tuned to provide functional
performance that can be offered at price points that support high-volume DSL deployments in the Asian
and Indian markets.”
Pulse's Z-321NF NanoFilter is just 36mm deep x 16.6mm long x 18mm high, works with any single-line phone, fax machine, or dial-up
