The Network and Service Companion (NSC-100) is a new category of a compact hand-held device combining multiple test interfaces (PON, Ethernet, WiFi) with the VIAVI ‘OneCheck’ application concept to make network validation and high speed (Gigabit and higher) service testing a simple and speedy process for all frontline techs and installers, be they, beginner or expert.
A single high-performance tool that allows techs to operate in multiple network environments and applications allowing network delivery and service performance to be easily documented with clear and fast demarcation/segmentation of any issues in under a minute
Features:
- Robust, field-ready, screen-less design
- PON test interface with ONU/ONT emulation
- Ethernet test interfaces up to 10G
- Ethernet L2/L3 loopback support for Y.1564 & RFC-2544 tests up to 10 Gbps
- VIAVI Fusion (centralized test system) leverages NSCs as remote-controlled test agents
- High-end WiFi test interface – 3x3 WiFi antenna with 2.4 & 5GHz; WiFi Expert shows coverage, channel noise, airtime, and throughput
- Automated ‘OneCheck’ feature ensures that all necessary and required tests/checks are performed by a tech while on site
- Multiple levels of gigabit or higher throughput testing (Ookla Speedtest, TrueSpeed RFC-6349, FTP SpeedCheck) for service evaluation against whatever benchmark is needed
- Service speed tests available through all test interfaces
- Job Manager helps techs manage their Jobs, Test Results & Reports
- On-board report generation and submission via the cloud (StrataSync) or direct email (smartphone/tablet)
