The Viavi (formerly JDSU) EOSX8000 is an external optical switch module forming part of the OTU 8000 optical test platform ecosystem. It provides a 1x36 switching matrix with SC-APC connectors, enabling fully automated multi-port fibre testing and monitoring without manual reconnection.
The EOSX8000 is primarily used in conjunction with the Viavi OTU 8000 mainframe and an OTDR module to automate fibre characterisation across large numbers of fibres or spans. This makes it well suited to central office environments, fibre network monitoring systems, and production test benches where repeated or scheduled testing across many fibres is required.
