VeEX UX400 Universal Test Platform

VeEX UX400 Universal Test Platform

Next Generation Network Testing Now up to 600G

The VeEX UX400 is the smallest multi-service transport test solution to offer test capabilities ranging from DS1/E1 all the way up to 6x 100G traffic generation, supporting the latest 100G/40G optical pluggable form factors (CFP4, CFP2, CFP, QSFP28, QSFP+, no adapters required). Its modular architecture allows for up to six independent test modules and up to twelve concurrent tests or combinations of tests, including legacy PDH/DSn, SDH/SONET, OTN, Ethernet, Fibre Channel, CPRI/OBSAI, C/DWDM spectrum analysis and more. The platform's software architecture has been developed so that multiple users or scripts are able to access and operate different test modules at the same time, maximizing the use of resources. A battery backup option is available for the portable UX400 platform. Test modules can also operate in a standard 19" rack – the UX400R, when portability or battery operation is not needed.

The following test module options are available:

• 40G/100G Test Modules Option
• 40G Test Module Option
• 10G Test Module Option
• 2.5G Test Module Option
• 1GE Test Module Option
• 16G FC Test Module Option
• Multi-Service Test Module Option
• OSA Test Module Option

SUPPORTED MODULES

40G/100G Modules Offers physical interfaces for OTU3, OTU4, 40G and 100G Ethernet testing. Installation, commissioning, monitoring and maintenance of OTN and Ethernet networks is simplified thanks to a combination of intuitive features and powerful test functions. Available in CFP, CFP2, CFP4 and QSFP28 formats. 40G Module Offers physical interface for OTU3, STM-256 and OC-768 testing. Fast troubleshooting and comprehensive analysis of transmission problems can be performed using intrusive, non-intrusive and monitoring test modes. 10G Module Offers physical interfaces for OTU2, STM-64, OC-192, 10G Ethernet, 8G/10G Fibre Channel testing. Novice users will benefit from the easy-to-use GUI, while experienced users will appreciate the array of advanced features such as test profiles, service disruption, VLAN and tributary scans, round trip delay, one-way latency and much more. 2.5G Module The module’s lower rate physical interfaces for OTU1, SDH, SONET, legacy PDH and DSn/T-carrier interfaces, is a perfect complement to the UX400, enabling a full range of link testing capabilities from DS1/E1 to OTU4.

1GE Module Provides testing for 10/100/1000 Ethernet and 1/2/4 G Fibre Channel technologies, with support for industry standard tests like RFC2544 and loopback tests . The Ethernet module also offers synchronization protocol testing tools with SyncE and 1588v2/PTP support. 16G Fibre Channel Module Offers multi-rate wire-speed traffic generation at all commercially available Fibre Channel rates with FC-2 BERT for link integrity testing. Also supports latency and buffer-to-buffer credit measurements for SAN installation, commissioning and troubleshooting tasks. Multi-Service Module Convenient all-in-one test solution for OTN, SDH, SONET, PDH, DSn networks, combined with extensive support for Mobile Backhaul technologies such as SyncE, 1588v2 PTP, Carrier Ethernet, Fibre Channel, CPRI/OBSAI and Synchronization testing. Ideal for modern multi-technology end-to-end service verification. OSA Module Optical Spectrum and Advanced Channel Analyzer for CWDM and DWDM Networks. Using state-of-the-art micro-optic design and MEMS tuning technology, the UX400 OSA module measures all key optical parameters with simplicity, accuracy and robustness. High reliability is achieved through a rugged mechanical design with no moving parts that does not require periodic calibration.
