Datasheet

Overview

The VIAVI ONT 800G FLEX Module is an application module for the ONT-800 mainframe. It provides test and measurement capabilities used by manufacturers to design and launch networking products based on PAM-4 signalling and flexible services up to 800G.

The module covers optical transport technologies including 400GE PAM-4, PHY, PCS and Ethernet layers, along with OTN FlexO/FOIC and OTUCn structures and FlexE groups. It supports Ethernet breakout configurations, FEC error insertion and FEC stress testing for PAM-4 coded signals, and OTN multiplexing with Ethernet client service mapping.

The ONT 800G FLEX V2 Module includes QSFP-DD, QSFP-56 and QSFP-28 test interfaces, and two FlexE groups of up to 400GE each via four QSFP28 ports. Ports operate independently and the module supports multiple users and test automation through the common ONT platform software.

Typical uses include system development, transponder hardware validation, FEC compliance validation, IC development and validation, system verification testing (SVT) and manufacturing test.
