EXFO | FTBx-88200NGE Advanced Multi-Service Test Solution

Increasing bandwidth demand, proliferation of data centers and increased connection speeds between data centers accelerate the growth of 100G networks. Network equipment manufacturers (NEMs) respond with solutions that are more suited to the distribution of 100G in the network by adding high-speed pluggable, CFP4 and QSFP28 interfaces that reduce costs and offer higher port support.

EXFO's FTBx-88200NGE Power Blazer is the first test solution to offer integrated CFP4 and QSFP28 interfaces and is ready for 100G network development.

Optical transport test

Complete OTN and SONET / SDH manipulation and monitoring for advanced testing and troubleshooting.
oduflex
Delay measurement for OTN, SONET / SDH and Ethernet traffic on all supported test interfaces.
Ethernet and SONET / SDH mapping over OTEM3 / OTU4 enables NEMs to develop 40G / 100G transponders.

Ethernet performance evaluation

Ethernet traffic generation and monitoring to simulate and characterize different applications simultaneously.
EtherSAM is an ITU-T Y.1564 Ethernet service activation methodology, including a service configuration test and service performance test for comprehensive field testing of mobile backhaul and commercial services, and QoS validation for better troubleshooting.
iSAM is an intelligent service activation method that provides Simplified ITU-T Y.1564 and RFC 6349 testing.
The RFC 6349 test method to verify end-to-end TCP service helps to accurately locate and diagnose problems that arise.

Rapid diagnostic test tools

Frequency and offset measurements per lane to determine network health before BER testing during commissioning of the 40G / 100G network.

Advanced troubleshooting tools

iOptics - Smart Pluggable Optical test application: this first-alarm test can be used in the field or lab environment to assess whether an optical device is operating efficiently, with minimal user configuration required.
