This short video demonstrates how you can save 50% of your test time by testing two fibers at once using a loopback test method. Learn step-by-step the different unidirectional and bi-directional test scenarios that can be applied in many fiber test applications, including FTTA, DAS or data centers.

We see the CEO guy calling the EXFO guy. In the lobby, we see trophies, and medals. The client shows the different distinctions that the company received. CEO: Hi There. Thanks for your help last time our VoLTE deployment was a big success. Now, I want to introduce WebRTC service in my network. Once again, I need your help and expertise. We see them walking toward the CEO’s office. EXFO: Sure! I can help test and launch your WebRTC service. In fact, I’ll qualify your network not only for WebRTC services, but also for interworking with all of your other VoLTE, voice over Video, and RCS services. CEO: Wonderful! I knew I could count on you. Now in the CEO’s office, the EXFO guy gives a tutorial on WebRTC. EXFO: For both personal and business use, access to the Internet via web browsers has become a fundamental requirement. WebRTC enables real-time communication via browsers. As you know, more than one billion devices like tablets, smartphones, and PCs already support WebRTC-enabled browsers. That number is expected to increase to more than six billion by 2019. Not only that, WebRTC is used in native mobile and machine (IoT) platforms and applications. I’m glad you decided to deploy WebRTC. It is definitely an opportunity for you to capitalize on this new demand. You’ll be able to extend existing VoLTE, voice over video, and RCS services to more Internet users and even introduce new services to your existing customer base. It will help you reduce customer churn, increase profitability, and overcome the OTT threat in the communications market. Client: Excellent! But, what do I do concretely to extend my IMS services to web users? EXFO: This interworking between the telecom and web clients is made possible by the WebRTC gateway, responsible for translating protocols and enabling user communication between both domains. Client: OK! But tell me, will it have considerable impact on my network? EXFO: Using WebRTC to extend your IMS services to web users will indeed require network architecture changes. Those changes have to support interworking through the WebRTC gateway, resolve Network Address Translation issues through the NAT servers, and more. So, it has to be smartly introduced to the network and accurately tested  That’s what I’m here for! Client: Perfect! With your help, I’ll maximize this WebRTC opportunity. (smiling) Knowing that I can reach new customers and bring in exciting new services, ah this makes my day. We see both the CEO and the EXFO guy looking and smiling at the spectators. The sun is back in the CEO’s office. Narrator: Ask for EXFO’s WebRTC test solution.

Communications is the DNA of the human species. We rely on mobile connectivity to carry out our daily tasks at work, at home, everywhere, every day. What would we do without reliable wireless networks? What could happen if complex VoLTE networks aren’t properly tested before rollout? How to prevent VoLTE deployment delays and network outages? Watch this short video to find the answers!

No more tip swapping. Inspect bulkhead and patchcord connectors using the same fiber inspection probe tip.

Discover how groundbreaking EXFO's FTB Ecosystem helps network operators institutionalize operational efficiencies, eliminate silos and ultimately control their operating expenses.

Part of EXFO TFv, FTB OnDemand enables customers to activate a wide range of testing functionalities (e.g., 100G testing) for a specific period of time to match their exact needs. This flexibility is perfect for situations where a test function is only needed for a specific project or for a new service that is still in the early ramp-up stage.

In FTTH or mobile backhaul environments where you need to diagnose link problems or establish pass/fail status for connectors, you can combine solutions like the iOLM and ConnectorMax applications.

Are corrupted connectors running wild in your network? See how you can Restore the Order with the FIP-435B.

Discover how EXFO experts developed a customized solution jointly with AT&T Labs. FiberFinder is a patented solution, ideal in helping operators maintain impeccable QoS and QoE as per theirSLAs: 100% accurate fiber detection, zero transmission disturbance, easy everyday application.

Welcome to a NetBlazer 100G Tech Corner. My name is Marcos Vasconcellos, Product Specialist for EXFO’s Transport and Datacom Business Unit. In today’s NetBlazer100G Tech Corner, I’ll be showing you the benefits of choosing EXFO’s FTB-1 Pro platform as your testing platform of choice. Let’s take a look at the FTB-890NGE test set – a 64K to 100Gig high speed tester residing on the FTB-1 Pro platform. First off, you’ll notice that the platform is equipped with a wide touchscreen and a very user friendly interface. It runs on Windows 8.1 Pro operating system. It’s really like using a PC, so little training is required before you are up and running. You can bring along your own apps—install what you need, SKYPE, MS Office, any cloud-based applications and even remote connection tools like TeamViewer—whatever is relevant for your technicians, GO PRO Sharing of files and results as well as connectivity to external devices is very simple and there are many options. Connect to printers, cameras, keyboards, mice and more Share files via USB port, Gigabit Ethernet port, Wi-Fi or Bluetooth Communicate with e-mail and over-the-top (OTT) apps The FTB-1 Pro platform’s high processing power means a faster boot-up time, so you can start testing quickly. Switching time between applications is fast and you’ll have the ability to send the unit into hibernation or sleep modes to save battery power. In fact, all the features, interfaces, GUI design, weight of the unit---all of it -- was designed based on the expertise we’ve gained by being out in the field with technicians and back at the NOC with operators to learn first-hand about how they do their jobs and which features are important for them to work better, faster and more efficiently. Before we end, in case you are wondering what all these interfaces do, take a look at the Tech Corner called the NetBlazer 100G Overview where we take a look at them in more detail. Thank you.
