VIAVI Fusion JMEP3 1 Gbps Smart SFP Micro Ethernet Probe
1 Gbps smart SFP transceiver that deploys inline in existing network SFP ports for Ethernet and IP performance assurance.
- Form factor
- Smart SFP transceiver
- Line rate
- 1 Gbps
Overview
The VIAVI Fusion JMEP3 is the 1 Gbps member of the Fusion JMEP family of smart SFP transceivers. It plugs inline into SFP ports on existing network devices, so the network needs less additional test instrumentation. The family also includes the 10 Gbps JMEP10.
Once installed, the JMEP3 acts as a remote test point. Network operators and service providers can use it to turn up, test, troubleshoot and monitor services. Because it installs in an existing SFP port, it turns that port into a service-assurance tool with Ethernet operation, administration and maintenance (OAM) and needs no extra space or power.
The probe supports RFC 2544 and Y.1564 test methods, L2/L3 test loopbacks, inline performance monitoring with Y.1731 and TWAMP-Light (RFC 5357), and 802.1ag OAM for fault isolation. It works with the VIAVI T-BERD/MTS test portfolio and the Fusion EtherASSURE centralized test solution.
