What is FTB-Care?

FTB-Care is your key to EXFO’s software enhancement program, which offers exclusive access to the latest upgrades and value-added software updates for your EXFO’s test platforms. Available through an annual subscription, this service is linked to the serial number of your EXFO platforms (e.g., FTB-1, FTB-200, FTB-500 and IQS-600). FTB-Care enables you to install any software that is supported by your platform configuration. (Please note that this does not include new module options.)

Why do I need a FTB-Care subscription?

With an FTB-Care subscription, you have a direct access to EXFO’s latest software upgrades. FTB-Care makes it simple and easy to maximize your test platform by keeping it up to date at all times.

Where do I get a FTB-Care subscription?

All newly purchased EXFO platforms come with a one-year FTB-Care license key. Your FTB-Care key can be installed and activated using one of two methods:

  • Directly through the Web-based license server using your My EXFO portal username and password.
  • With an FTB-Care license key file that you can download from your My EXFO portal, or that you can receive directly by e-mail from EXFO’s customer service department.

If you own an EXFO test platform (FTB-1, FTB-200, FTB-500 and IQS-600) that is still under its basic one-year warranty, you are entitled to an FTB-Care license-key equivalent to the duration of the standard warranty. Log on to My EXFO, register your platform and download your FTB-Care license key file linked to your platform’s serial number.

If your platform is no longer under the standard one-year warranty, then you can purchase an FTB-Care license key by contacting your local EXFO sales representative.
