GPON, XGSPON
Datasheet

Overview

The NSC100-GPON-XGSPON-BASE is a standard PON package of the VIAVI Network & Service Companion (NSC-100). It is a compact, screenless hand-held test device. This package includes both GPON and XGSPON test capability.

The NSC-100 emulates an ONU/ONT using a VIAVI GPON SFP or XGSPON SFP with an SC/APC interface. It reports the PON activation state, power levels read from the SFP, the PON ID and the ODN class according to ITU-T G.984, G.9807 and G.988. This lets technicians confirm that PON service delivery is good before they troubleshoot the premises.

The instrument is operated from a smartphone or tablet through the VIAVI Mobile Tech app over Bluetooth. It can also work with the VIAVI ONX-580 and ONX-CATV instruments. Job Manager organises jobs, test results and reports. Reports can be sent to StrataSync in the cloud or by email directly from the smart device.

Other NSC test applications can be added as options, including Ethernet, WiFi, throughput tests (SpeedCheck, Ookla Speedtest, TrueSpeed RFC-6349, iPerf), L2/L3 loopback and a TWAMP reflector. The unit is powered by a field-replaceable Li-Ion battery and charges over USB-C.
