announced the addition of VDSL2 test capabilities to its industry-leading

"Sunrise Telecom's HTT is easy to use and packs enormous functionality
into a small, inexpensive package. It's the only test set CenturyTel
Technicians need for IPTV installation and troubleshooting in home triple
play services," said Dennis White, Area Plant Supervisor for CenturyTel.
"With the HTT, our teams can quickly identify and isolate problems, which
greatly reduces the need to rewire homes, substantially cutting capital
expenses and reducing install times by more than 25%."

The HTT, with thousands of units deployed, integrates an unprecedented
range of test functions needed for in-home testing, and allows technicians to
test key interfaces, signals, and functions at the customer location during
installation. The HTT's unique next step logic guides technicians through the
installation process, and indicates probable locations and causes of
problems, speeding both installation and trouble-shooting.

"Revenue from new services like IPTV, VoD, high speed data and VoIP,
depends on the successful rollout of FTTN architectures with VDSL2, and the
consistent delivery of a high quality customer experience," said Jeff Heynen,
Directing Analyst, IPTV and Next Gen OSS/BSS at Infonetics Research. "The
Sunrise Telecom HTT offers comprehensive test capabilities that can speed
deployment, bulletproof quality, and essentially help service providers
achieve their revenue goals."

With nearly a dozen integrated test functions, the HTT ensures timely
delivery of IPTV and other network services. The unit simplifies testing by
providing automatic "go-no-go" test routines for VDSL, VDSL2, Home Phoneline
Networking Alliance (HPNA) networks, RF signal level meter, Ethernet, 802.11
WiFi, copper loop fault identification, Plain Old Telephone Service (POTS)
testing, ground continuity testing that verifies proper NID ground
connection, and in-house wiring identification and testing. The lightweight
unit easily clips to a technician's belt or drops into a tool bag and is
powered by a rechargeable, field replaceable smart battery system.

"We are pleased with the high level of confidence that CenturyTel has
placed in our HTT product and this new release brings a new set of
enhancements to facilitate our customers' VDSL2 deployment," said Bahaa
Moukadam, Sunrise Telecom's Vice President of Marketing. "With thousands of
units already deployed, we are now making the HTT available worldwide to
benefit a wider range of customers."

The HTT with VDSL2 is immediately available from Sunrise Telecom.
In-field upgrades are available for existing HTT customers with a software
option download. For sales information contact the company at
