Part of the VIAVI NITRO™ lifecycle management platform, the Fusion JMEP 10 addresses the emergence of 10 GbE as the dominant Ethernet bandwidth being used for applications such as 5G xHaul, enterprise Ethernet services, distributed access architecture (DAA) for cable, or GPON/XGSPON for fiber access networks.

Last year saw a global realignment of network traffic patterns, and service providers are responding by accelerating their technological evolution, relying on distributed architectures with longer links. For example, 5G requires 10 GbE to the tower, compared to 1 GbE for 3G or 4G. Cable networks require 10 GbE links connecting to remote PHYs at the edge. Traffic growth and complexity are further driving the adoption of virtualized testing and monitoring solutions. By actively monitoring and analyzing key performance indicators (KPIs) virtually, operators can maximize network performance and ensure the best possible customer experience, even while adapting to exponential traffic growth.

The Fusion JMEP 10 smart SFP+ is a small, hot-pluggable optical transceiver that provides an easy-to-deploy Ethernet testing solution for existing SFP+ ports. Its online performance monitoring capabilities transform network ports into service assurance tools, enabling Ethernet operation, management, and maintenance for any 10GbE network. Furthermore, its microburst detection feature monitors traffic with millisecond accuracy to detect spikes that can cause packet loss, which can dramatically impact application performance.
