VeEX UX400 is the first truly robust portable platform to offer test capabilities ranging from DS1/E1 to 100GE and beyond, allowing any combination of test modules tailored for each particular application or set of requirements. Its versatile and flexible hardware and software architecture optimize configurations to meet users’ specific needs; from transport applications at rates ranging from DS1/E1 to OC-768/ STM-256, OTU3 and OTU4 to Carrier and Ethernet Transport applications from 10M to 40GE/100GE and beyond. Its modular architecture allows for up to six independent test modules and up to six concurrent tests or combination of tests. It also allows simultaneous local and remote users to share the platform and run independent tests, maximizing the use of resources. Key Features of UX400: Industry’s smallest and most powerful 1.5Mbps to 100G test platform Supports OTU4/OTU3, 40/100GE, 10GE, 1000Base-X, 10/100/1000Base-T, SDH/SONET up to STM-256/OC-768, and PDH/DSn test interfaces without having to change modules Large high resolution 10.4” color touch screen VGA monitor port, microphone/headset, built-in speaker Built-in GPS timing and Atomic (Rubidium) clock Provide accurate and stable timing reference when an office clock is not available (e.g. Mobile Station) Verify the accuracy of a received network clock Intel Atom 1.6GHz Processor 2GB DDR, 8GB SDD (up to 32GB) High capacity Li-ion battery pack >1 hour @ 40G, >8 hours @ 1GE Battery operation at all rates 1000Base-T management port Dual USB 2.0 ports WiFi, 3G UMTS modem, Bluetooth, Memory stick VFL and OPM hardware options Weighs <15kg fully loaded including battery Dual ports to monitor network bi-directionally PDH/DSn/SDH/SONET from E1/T1 to 40G OTN from OTU1 to OTU4 Ethernet from 10Base-T to 100GE Generate +/- 150ppm clock offset to stress both Ethernet and SDH networks Jitter and Wander analysis up to STM-1e rates SyncE and IEEE 1588v2 support with Wander analysis Pulse mask analysis on PDH/DSn signals Multiple remote and local users able to share platform for simultaneous testing Multiple Test Applications and Users Independent configuration and operation of modules allows multiple users to share platform Up to 6 test applications can be configured and operated simultaneously, locally and remotely SCPI remote control interface via IP connection for multiple user/applications Go back to TOC UX400 2.5G e-Manual D07-00-061P RevA00 Page 9 of 142 3.0 Safety Information Safety precautions should be observed during all phases of operation of this instrument.
