NQMS fiber A STRAIGHTFORWARD APPROACH TO NETWORK OPERATION AND MAINTENANCE The NQMSfiber network quality monitoring system is a centralized server solution that manages your cable and fiber network status. It keeps you aware of any fiber faults or degradation in your network. NQMSfiber uses a central server and remote test units (RTU) deployed at key locations across the network. Featuring sophisticated functions such as alarm management and reporting, trouble-ticket handling and complete network status schematic viewing, NQMSfiber enables you to integrate all your network operation and maintenance...

NQMS fiber THE MOST RELIABLE FIBER MONITORING SOLUTION Leveraging EXFO’s most recent OTDR technology NQMSfiber RTUs use EXFO’s OTDR modules which provide high-resolution and accurate loss measurements in short and long fiber environments. All RTUs have one-meter resolution scans for resolving closely spaced events such as connectors or mechanical splices in an access site. Learning function Get the most out of your system, thanks to EXFO’s innovative RFTS function called Learning, which automatically establishes and optimizes fault detection thresholds applied to each monitored link for fault-detection...

WHATEVER THE DEGRADATION, NQMS fiber TRACKS IT DOWN A do-it-all solution EXFO's FG-750 remote test units can detect, and automatically locate and track degradations, no matter what or where they are. The FG-750s measure and report accurate information to the NQMSfiber server (e.g., degradation or break value and optical distance from RTU site). In the NQMSfiber server, alarms are defined by the system administrators according to severity, degradation value or a combination of customizable thresholds. Thus, any status change of a fiber, test or system parameter can be used to create an alarm....

NQMS fiber COMPREHENSIVE MONITORING Auto-provisioning process Once a new fiber connection is added through the RTU web interface, the RTU system automatically creates an optical route reference with a clear and easy-to-use auto-naming convention. Then, the learning phase starts automatically, and the 24/7 surveillance is activated without any additional user intervention. This simple procedure does not require deep OTDR or system knowledge. Regional management and topology view status monitoring Regional segmentation of the RTUs, test ports and related alarms enables technicians to see and act...

NQMS fiber RELIABLE, FAIL-SAFE AND SECURE SOLUTION Allowing for secure and mobile access, the NQMSfiber application software is the only fully web-based RFTS solution on the market. Standard licensing provides simultaneous access (minimum 5 concurrent users), whether they are connecting through the LAN or virtually from anywhere outside the corporate network. SMS alarms from EMS or alerts from RTU Customer fault management (OSS) with alarm correlation and/or on-demand test functions NQMSfiber mobile app: - Alarm management view - Test on-demand function - Route management NQMSfiber EMS application,...

NQMS fiber ENHANCED SECURITY NQMSfiber contains an identity and authentication module (IAM) that is hosted locally or in an external server to facilitate user administration and management among multiple FG-750s, NQMSfiber server and/or external applications. IAM runs on a secure protocol (HTTPS) to enhance security and encrypt data among users, FG-750s units and the NQMSfiber server. The IAM can be integrated to your LDAP or Active Directory servers as well as Corporate or social media identity provider such as Facebook or Google. This module allows you to have a single-sign on capability once...

NQMS fiber REPORTS AND DASHBOARDS NQMSfiber allows you to assign customers to one or multiple routes and obtain comprehensive reporting of events that occurred in the past weeks or months. By generating a list of fault history by customer, the system pinpoints when and what happened for true service-level agreement (SLA) management. You can also set a higher priority alert or program alarm escalation in case an event affects a specific customer. This NQMSfiber dashboard function offers a network performance KPI instrument and SLA tracking tool to operation managers as part of the NQMSfiber baseline...

NQMS fiber FULLY SCALABLE SOLUTION FOR ALL MONITORING NEEDS Considering a monitoring system but your current needs do not require a fully integrated server-based solution? EXFO’s Fiber Guardian stand-alone remote OTDR unit (FG-750) along with Fiber Test Insight (FTI) is the perfect entry point to start monitoring at your own pace. It also allows you to seamlessly migrate to a complete monitoring solution without changing test units whenever you are ready to scale up. You can afterwards include advanced fiber analytics with EXFO Xtract to assess the quality of services in a unified dashboard including...
