Datasheet

Overview

The NSC200-XGSPON-BASE is the XGS-PON standard package of the VIAVI Network & Service Companion (NSC-200). The Network & Service Companion is a compact, screenless hand-held device that combines PON, Ethernet and WiFi test interfaces with VIAVI OneCheck applications for network validation and multi-gig service testing by frontline technicians and installers.

This package includes XGSPON testing. The unit emulates an ONU/ONT using a VIAVI XGSPON SFP with an SC/APC interface and reports PON activation state, power levels from the SFP, PON ID and ODN class according to ITU-T G.9807 and G.988. This lets technicians confirm PON service delivery before troubleshooting the premises.

Upgrades and workflow

The NSC-200 platform supports optional GPON, Ethernet (10M to 10G), WiFi, loopback, TWAMP reflector and throughput tests (SpeedCheck, Ookla Speedtest, TrueSpeed RFC-6349 and iPerf) up to 10 Gbps, added as software options and SFPs. The unit is operated over Bluetooth from the VIAVI Mobile Tech app. Job Manager organizes jobs, test results and reports, and reports can be submitted through StrataSync or sent by email.
