VSE-1100 2.5.4

The VSE-1100 application is specifically designed for use alongside the Viavi VSE-1100 CATV and spectrum analyzer. It is important to note that the application offers limited demonstration functionality unless connected to the analyzer.

The VSE-1100 stands out as the first consolidated digital spectrum video analyzer and noise-troubleshooting platform in the cable television (CATV) industry, tailored to meet the demands of converged cable access platform (CCAP) and remote PHY evolution. Unlike updates to legacy, analog-based systems, the VSE-1100 is an entirely new solution developed for the expanding digital cable ecosystem, responding effectively to the increase in unicast traffic.

Key features of the VSE-1100 include:

• A singular solution that replaces outdated measurement and analysis tools, effectively integrating all necessary functions to prepare, deploy, and troubleshoot Remote PHY and CATV signals efficiently from the headend, through the Hubsite, and into customer premises—all within a portable and compact design.
• Robust capabilities not typically found in a single device, offering spectrum analysis, MPEG analysis, reverse path/upstream analysis, and QAM measurements at a significantly reduced cost compared to acquiring multiple individual testers for similar functionalities.
• An advancement over current and legacy instruments that are often cumbersome and mobile challenges, characterized by slow measurement times and complex setup processes.
• User-friendly operation that accommodates technicians of varying skill levels; it features automatic network scan and detection to reduce setup time significantly, complemented by a straightforward tablet user interface for effortless operations and remote testing.
• Rapid upstream test modes that expedite troubleshooting procedures, thereby reducing mean time to repair.
