VeEX CX 100/120/180 Series CATV Expert

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.

CATV network testing simplified
An all-in-one, super-tech installation and maintenance tool for next generation CATV networks. It can be used at the headend for return path ingress scan and return path QAM analysis. Enhanced ingress monitoring in both the forward and reverse paths is possible across a 50dB dynamic range. Adjustable resolution bandwidths, measurement dwell times and attenuation provide spectrum analysis capabilities all optimized for CATV signal types and bandwidth. Similar to the CX150+, a DOCSIS 2.0 cable modem or an advanced USG are available as hardware options at time of order or as field upgrades. Remote View software option is also available on the CX180+.
