More speed. More synergy. More services. EXFO’S HIGH-SPEED 40G/100G PRODUCT PORTFOLIO

Delivering Proven 40G/100G Test Solutions In today’s increasingly competitive market, worldwide carriers and network operators are striving to deliver the bandwidth required for residential, mobile and enterprise services, and consequently upgrading to 40G/100G. To achieve this transition in a simple, cost-effective way—and to tackle challenges such as measuring the in-band optical signal-to-noise ratio (OSNR) and pinpointing high PMD on ber networks, or to enable multirate services up to 100G over optical transport networks—they are turning to EXFO’s unique and powerful test expertise....

Optimize Your Network, Reduce Downtime—Right the First Time

Optical Spectrum Analyzer – FTB-5240S/B-P Making complex network activation child’s play Reducing downtime in any type of network calls for accurate measurement of optical signal-to-noise ratio (OSNR). However, ROADM and 40 Gbits/s networks present a unique challenge, as traditional OSNR measurement methods can yield incorrect results since the noise level between the peaks is no longer directly correlated with the noise level at the channel wavelength. Integrated in the FTB-5240S/B-P module, EXFO’s WDM-Aware technology delivers accurate in-band OSNR measurements of ROADM or 40 Gbit/s...

Single-Ended Dispersion Analyzer – FTB-5700 Automated CD/PMD testing with one easy-to-use module The challenge Match Your Dispersion Testing Approach with Your Needs Increasing market pressure is pushing network operators to reduce costs (both CAPEX and OPEX) and to nd ways to do more with less—less engineers and technicians, less truck rolls, less human intervention, less time—and yet meet performance standards. The solution Leveraging over 15 years of CD and PMD testing leadership and close collaboration with tier-1 customers, EXFO was in a unique position to design a dispersion test...

PMD Analyzer – FTB-5500B Advanced PMD testing, done lightning-fast Chromatic Dispersion Analyzer – FTB-5800 Fast, accurate CD testing, in the CO and in the eld PMD has been known for a long time as a signicant danger to both legacy and newly deployed networks. However, with the advent of 10G, 40G and 100G systems, concern and awareness for PMD keeps growing. Much like PMD, chromatic dispersion (CD) is a physical phenomenon whose effect increases with higher transmission speeds. At 40 Gbit/s and 100 Gbit/s, it becomes critical to accurately characterize CD and implement appropriate...

Pinpoint High-PMD Sections on Your Link and Save Big on Fiber Replacement

Distributed PMD – FTB-5600 The rst distributed PMD analyzer on the market At higher bit rates—10, 40 and 100 Gbit/s—polarization mode dispersion (PMD) can be quality-limitative, as it increases with faster transmission. Traditionally, there were two options to address this situation: trying to nd another ber t for highspeed transmission, or replacing the whole link. Whereas the former option is no guarantee, since other bers installed around the same time will likely display similar PMD, the latter option, although effective, can be extremely costly. The FTB-5600 Distributed PMD Analyzer...
