CATV Experts
 
CX Family

VeEX™ CX series are next generation test solutions designed for analog and digital cable TV networks supporting VoIP, WiFi, and Internet service. Analog and Digital SLM, ingress noise sweep, deep interleave support, and QAM constellation analysis are among many standard features. Enhanced optional features include QAM16/64/128 Upstream Generation (USG), Reverse Path QAM Analysis, and DOCSIS 2.0 Cable Modem emulation. A high capacity LiIon battery pack provides extended autonomy for a full day use with only a single charge.

A next generation CATV installer meter to characterize and measure Analog and Digital video signals. For Analog carriers, Peak Video level, single or dual channel Audio levels and Carrier to Noise measurements are possible on NTSC, PAL, or SECAM video formats. Digital QAM16/64/256 carriers with or without deep Interleaving are measured accurately with MER, BER and Constellation diagram results being reported. Tilt, Quick Test, and Forward/Reverse ingress scan are standard features. The built-in Ethernet port supports Triple Play test features, such as, VoIP Call emulation with MOS scoring, Web-browser, IP connection testing, remote control, test results upload/download, and system management. WiFi connectivity tests can be performed using a USB WiFi adaptor.
