VIAVI has launched the Data Center Expert 700 (DCX 700) – an advanced Tier 1 multifiber tester designed for modern data centers where speed, precision, and flexibility are critical. The DCX 700 can certify up to 24 fibers in a single measurement and uses a true one-cord reference, enabling significantly faster and more reliable testing.
Supports MMC 16 and MMC 24 connectors
The DCX 700 supports all relevant high-density connector types, including:
- MPO 12 (unpinned)
- MMC 16 (pinned)
- MMC 24 (pinned)
Thanks to the interchangeable and modular adapters, the same unit can be used for 12, 16, and 24-fiber architectures. This makes the investment future-proof, flexible, and suitable for both existing and upcoming data center solutions.
Key Features and Benefits
One cord reference – no fan-out cables
- The DCX 700 uses a single reference cord for all connector types. This eliminates the need for fan-out cables, reduces setup errors, and ensures faster, more stable certification.
Testing up to 24 fibers in one run
- The device can perform Tier 1 certification of entire multifiber bundles – 12, 16, or 24 fibers – in a single test, significantly reducing testing time per installation.
Modular and future-proof adapters
- Adapters can be swapped in the field, allowing the instrument to be adapted to new connector types without investing in new equipment.
Automated workflows
- Guided, intuitive test flows enable both experienced and new technicians to deliver fast, reproducible results without extensive training.
Robust design and replaceable battery
- The DCX 700 is built for demanding data center environments and includes a long-lasting replaceable battery, which is also compatible with VIAVI’s INX inspection probes.
Cloud-integrated documentation
- The system can be integrated into automated workflows with job management, synchronization, and reporting, providing full traceability throughout the project.
