Overview
The VIAVI OneExpert HFC ONXF-720-BB-85-204-IPX is a new-unit package of the ONX-720 handheld platform. It tests DOCSIS, Ethernet, PON and WiFi 7 service throughput up to 10 Gbps, and VIAVI states that a test takes under a minute. This package comes with a broadband optical power meter, a visual fault locator (VFL), the ONX-720 IPX software package and the ONX-CATV-D31-S-8520-1212 DOCSIS 3.1 module (85/204 MHz upstream, 1.2 GHz/1.2 GHz downstream).
Test Process Automation
The OneCheck workflows give one-button pass/fail testing for Ethernet, WiFi, PON and DOCSIS. Test results are saved with geo tags. The guided steps keep testing consistent between technicians and reduce the training they need.
Optical and fiber tools
The broadband power meter measures optical power from 800 to 1650 nm through a dedicated optical port. The built-in VFL and support for a USB fiber scope with Auto Analysis help technicians find fiber faults and connector defects.
DOCSIS and RF
The ONX-720/730 keeps the RF and DOCSIS test functions of the ONX-620/630 and works with the existing OneExpert CATV RF modules. Analysis covers downstream channels, upstream ingress and OFDM signals.
Design
The unit is IP54 rated, weatherproof and drop-tested, and its modular design can be upgraded to 25G/50G PON and DOCSIS 4.0. It has integrated GPS, StrataSync and mobile app support, and a field-replaceable 96 W/hr battery.
