VSE vs VIAVILab

The VSE-1100 app is designed to be used in conjunction with the Viavi VSE-1100 CATV and spectrum analyzer. Note: The VSE-1100 app provides limited demonstration capability without being connected to the analyzer. The VSE-1100 is the CATV industry’s first consolidated digital spectrum video analyzer and noise-troubleshooting platform designed for the challenges of the converged cable access platform (CCAP) and remote PHY evolution. It is not an update to an existing, analog-based platform, but a completely redesigned product and the industry’s first device developed specifically for the digital cable world – and the rise in unicast traffic. VSE-1100 provides: ∙ One tool to update and replace outdated measurement/analysis equipment, combining everything needed to prepare, deploy, and troubleshoot Remote PHY and/or CATV signals efficiently from the headend through the Hubsite and into the premise in a portable, compact size. ∙ Powerful capabilities not found in a single platform, including spectrum analysis, MPEG analysis, reverse path/upstream analysis, and QAM measurements – all at a fraction of the cost of owning individual testers required to do similar tests. ∙ A device superior to current and legacy tools that are immobile and heavy, provide slower measurement times, and complicated to set up and use. ∙ Ease-of-use regardless of technician capability, providing automatic network scan/detect to minimize setup time and a tablet user interface that is simplicity itself in terms of operation and remote test capabilities. ∙ Fast, innovative upstream test modes that speed troubleshooting to shorten mean time to repair.

The VIAVILab app instantly identifies substances on the field with their near infrared spectra. The application is part of a complete data management ecosystem covering from data acquisition to quality monitoring. A MircoNIR infrared spectrometer is required to acquire new spectra.
