ABSTRACT
This contribution uses a simplified Central Office model to propose that “Composite CEXT” need not be
considered separately from NEXT in the impairment tables of PN4254 Volume 1.

Purpose
The purpose of this contribution is to show through a simplified Central Office (CO) model that it may
not be necessary to consider “Composite CEXT”, which is currently represented by the “y” factor in the
impairment combination tables of PN4254 Volume 1, separately from NEXT.
Simplified CO Model

Proposal
Based on the model in Figure 1 it is proposed that the crosstalk contributed by the 300 ft of Composite
CEXT be considered simply as part of NEXT. The rationale for this proposal is the following:
 The variety of disturber power spectral density (PSD) masks in the Composite CEXT interfering
bundle is very similar to the variety of PSD masks in the NEXT interfering bundle.
 The value of the NEXT crosstalk in Figure 1 is reduced by the fact that the NEXT coupling only
begins outside the CO and thus the coupling signals are attenuated from having traveled 400 ft
from the DSLAM’s.
 The value of the Composite CEXT signal referred to as the “y” factor in the impairment tables of
PN4254 is based on the length of the Composite CEXT coupling, which is modeled as 300 ft,
and is reduced by the fact that it begins 100 ft away from the CO. Therefore, in the absence of
rigorous expressions to evaluate the values of short-range crosstalk, it is likely that the value of
the “y” factor is approximately equal to the value of the reduction in NEXT caused by the 400 ft
span before NEXT coupling begins.
Conclusion
It is proposed that the Composite CEXT crosstalk factor referred to as the “y” factor in the PN4254
impairment tables be removed based on the assumption that it is roughly equivalent to a reduction factor
of NEXT resulting from the distance between the DSLAM’s and the beginning of NEXT coupling.
