Enhance Testing for the Headend and Outside Plant
The latest VSE-1100 firmware release from VIAVI Solutions enables quicker alignment and troubleshooting
The latest firmware release for the
VSE-1100 offers new test features to simplify testing in the headend and in the field, enabling quicker alignment and troubleshooting:
- Total
Integrated Power – Headend techs need to validate the power level into
the laser to avoid overdriving the circuits. Total integrated power
includes power contributed by all network carriers, and measurements can
be compared directly with total power limit specifications.
- Test
Point Compensation – This feature compensates for losses from test
points and/or probes to enable simpler measurement without manual
calculations.
- Noise
Trace – Tracks the noise signature on the HyperSpectrum persistence
heatmap, improving visibility underneath active QAM signals
The
powerful, truly portable VSE-1100 includes digital and analog spectrum
and video analysis as well as advanced noise and upstream
troubleshooting—the headend and the field can use the same instrument to
verify problem sources and eliminate finger-pointing. The VSE is the
industry's most cost-effective real-time analyzer designed for HFC
network use. Its remarkable 50dB MER measurement specification is unmatched in field test devices and is especially useful for headend testing.
VIAVI
is the worldwide leader in cable instruments, and the VSE-1100 offers
cutting edge speed, ease of use, precision, and versatility for the
headend and the field. It is the go-to analyzer for cable operators of
all sizes all over the world.
