Overview
The VIAVI ONXF-730-65-204-NTX is a new-unit ordering configuration of the OneExpert HFC ONX-730. It is the No Optics package: it has no optical power meter or VFL, and it comes with the ONX-CATV-D31-S-6520-1212 DOCSIS 3.1 module (65/204 MHz upstream, 1.2 GHz/1.2 GHz downstream) and the ONX 730 NTX software package.
The OneExpert HFC platform tests DOCSIS, Ethernet and WiFi 7 throughput up to 10 Gbps. It uses VIAVI Test Process Automation (TPA) and one-button OneCheck workflows that give pass/fail results, with saved results geo-tagged. The aim is consistent installs, less technician training and fewer repeat visits.
DOCSIS and RF
The ONX-720/730 continues the ONX-620/630 line. It keeps their RF and DOCSIS testing functions and supports the existing RF modules. Measurements include downstream analog and digital channel analysis, OFDM signal and profile analysis, upstream ingress spectrum scanning, and forward and reverse sweep with the SCU-1800.
Platform
The unit is IP54 rated, weatherproof, drop-tested and modular. It has integrated GPS, StrataSync and mobile app support, and a field-replaceable 96 W/hr battery. Options add optical Ethernet over SFP+, OneCheck PON with GPON/XGS-PON emulation, Ookla Speedtest, TrueSpeed, iPerf and Smart Access Anywhere remote connectivity.
