Fiber build and provision with EXFO remote fiber testing and monitoring (RFTM)

5G densification, national broadband strategies and a boom in data center construction are driving massive investments in fiber optic networks. When building out such networks, technicians will typically only test the complete link at the very end of the fiber segment deployment without visibility on the progress and quality during the build process. With a centralized fiber monitoring solution such as EXFO’s Build & Provision solution powered by RFTM, the fiber link can now be validated end to end while the technician deploys the fiber, reducing the need for future truck rolls. Correlating the fiber build layout with the optical measurement reduces the MTTR (mean time to repair).

800G ETC interoperability demo by Microchip and EXFO

Stephen Docking from Microchip Technology and Sebastien Veilleux from EXFO demonstrate an interoperable solution for 800G transmissions based on the Ethernet Consortium Technology standards (ETC). 800G Ethernet packets are generated at full line rate and are then analyzed by Microchip’s and EXFO’s connected devices. This interop demo took place in March 7-9, in San Diego @OFC2023. Questions about 800G testing best practices? Reach out to our experts on EXFO.com
