Part 1 of 2 - Network Equipment Manufacturers Webinar Series: Lab testing redefined to conquer your challenges

François Robitaille

Senior Product Line Manager, Optical Business Unit

François Robitaille has been with EXFO since 2000. His main responsibilities include NEM market assessment, identifying potential growth areas and key product ideas as well as ensuring that products reach the market and are commercially successful. François started his career as a Project Manager for Gentec Electro-Optics and from there moved on to Bell Mobility Radio in Engineering and Sales, then to Davicom Technologies as Director of R&D. François holds a Master's Degree in Electrical Engineering from Université Laval, in Quebec City. He brings to EXFO extensive expertise in both R&D and sales.

NEMs and Lab WDM/SONET/OTN transport testing

This webinar is the first of a series for network equipment manufacturers (NEMs) tackles the challenges faced by them in delivering innovative solutions in the context of a rapidly changing environment with pressures and constraints faced in the lab/R&D and in manufacturing.

Solutions for the following are explored:

  • Changing landscape of transceiver technology, including CFP4, QSFP+/QSFP28
  • Advanced OTN testing
  • Scaling production capacity
  • Reconfiguring manufacturing stations

Network equipment manufacturers are undergoing a transformation in the way they develop and deploy products for their customers. The growth in network traffic and the booming demand for bandwidth has spurred the need for rapid innovation in technologies that underpin the network infrastructure.

As a result of this, the production floor is under pressure. Time-to-market is shorter, while costs have to be kept under control. Test automation and reliability are key enablers and have become critical to help accelerate the production floor.

In this webinar, learn how to:

  • Use switching to reduce CAPEX
  • Simplify management and troubleshooting
  • Improve automation performance

See what solutions are essential for a highly flexible, constraint-free production floor while maximizing CAPEX and return on existing investments.

Be Agile. Your Way.
