DESCRIPTION:

The VIAVI NSC-100 Network & Service Companion is a compact portable network test platform developed for installation, troubleshooting, maintenance, and service activation of Ethernet, IP, fibre, copper, and wireless communication networks.

Designed for telecom field technicians, enterprise network engineers, and service providers, the NSC-100 combines multiple network validation and diagnostic functions into a lightweight field-deployable platform suitable for day-to-day service maintenance and infrastructure troubleshooting.

The platform supports testing across Carrier Ethernet networks, enterprise Ethernet infrastructure, IP communication networks, fibre transport links, copper network environments, WLAN infrastructure, and VoIP services.

The NSC-100 is engineered for network installation, Ethernet troubleshooting, service activation, IP diagnostics, fibre validation, copper cable testing, WLAN analysis, VoIP troubleshooting, SLA verification, and field maintenance operations.

Its integrated multi-service architecture reduces the requirement for multiple standalone field instruments by combining Ethernet performance analysis, service validation, connectivity diagnostics, and network troubleshooting functions within a single portable platform.

The NSC-100 supports rapid deployment across telecom access networks, enterprise LAN/WAN infrastructure, utility communication systems, and industrial network environments where fast field diagnostics and reliable service validation are required.
