Overview

The VIAVI OneExpert HFC ONXF-720-42-204-TSX is a new-unit ordering package of the OneExpert HFC (ONX-720/730) platform. It combines the ONX-720 mainframe with the TSX software package and the ONX-CATV-D31-S-4220-1012 DOCSIS 3.1 module (42/204 MHz upstream, 1.0 GHz/1.2 GHz downstream). This is a No Optics package: it has no optical power meter or visual fault locator.

The OneExpert HFC validates DOCSIS, Ethernet and WiFi 7 throughput up to 10 Gbps. VIAVI Test Process Automation (TPA) and the OneCheck workflows give technicians one-button pass/fail testing for Ethernet, WiFi and DOCSIS, with geo-tagged saved results.

DOCSIS and RF

The ONX-720/730 continues the RF and DOCSIS testing of the ONX-620/630, including support for existing RF modules. Downstream analysis covers analog, QAM and OFDM channels. Upstream analysis includes ingress spectrum scanning from 0.5 to 204 MHz, and the unit supports forward and reverse sweep with the SCU-1800.

Platform

The unit is IP54-rated, drop-tested and modular. It has integrated GPS, StrataSync and mobile app support, plus a field-replaceable 96 W/hr battery for multi-day use. The modular design allows upgrades to 25G/50G PON and DOCSIS 4.0.
