EXFO Brings Multichannel Testing to 10G, 40G Transport
EXFO has added multichannel testing capabilities to its FTB/IQS-8120NGE/8130NGE Power Blazer Next-Generation Multiservice Test Modules and FTB/IQS-8140 Transport Blazer 40/43 Gigabit SONET/SDH/OTN Test Modules. These newly launched capabilities provide 10G/40G labs and network equipment manufacturers with the ability to test all channels simultaneously, accelerating testing time and improving the efficiency of their development environments.
With these new test capabilities, it is now possible to simultaneously perform SDT measurements on multiple channels and to monitor in real time errors and alarms on all channels for SONET/SDH and OTN signals.
The added functionalities are available through a software option for existing FTB/IQS-8120NGE/8130NGE Power Blazer and FTB/IQS-8140 Transport Blazer modules, requiring no additional hardware.
