DESCRIPTION:

The VIAVI Fusion QT-600-10 is a carrier-grade scalable Ethernet test probe engineered for centralized service activation, Ethernet troubleshooting, SLA assurance, and automated transport network diagnostics across telecom, carrier, enterprise, and cloud infrastructures.

Designed as part of the VIAVI Fusion and NetComplete EtherASSURE service assurance ecosystem, the QT-600-10 combines active Ethernet testing, passive monitoring, packet capture, and remote fault sectionalization within a compact rack-mounted architecture optimised for permanent deployment in carrier and transport network environments.

The platform supports deployment across:

• Carrier Ethernet infrastructure
• mobile Ethernet backhaul
• metro and core transport networks
• enterprise Ethernet services
• cloud connectivity environments
• point-to-point Ethernet services
• point-to-multipoint Ethernet architectures
• centralized network assurance systems

The QT-600-10 is engineered for:

• Ethernet service activation
• SLA verification
• centralized BER testing
• network troubleshooting
• automated service turn-up
• fault isolation
• remote packet capture
• Ethernet performance analysis
• traffic monitoring
• long-term service assurance

The platform supports advanced Ethernet service activation methodologies including RFC 2544, ITU-T Y.1564 SAMComplete, 802.1ag/Y.1731 loopback and linktrace validation, allowing operators to validate throughput, latency, frame loss, jitter, and committed burst performance from centralized operations environments.

Its scalable carrier-grade architecture supports simultaneous multistream testing and automated loopback operation for rapid network segmentation and fault isolation across distributed Ethernet infrastructures.

The QT-600-10 integrates with Fusion centralized management environments and EtherASSURE operational support systems to automate test workflows, schedule repeatable validation campaigns, and reduce operational expenditure through remote diagnostics and reduced technician dispatch requirements.
