QUEBEC CITY, June 4, 2019 /CNW Telbec/ - EXFO Inc. (NASDAQ: EXFO) (TSX: EXF) the communications industry's test, monitoring and analytics experts, launched Optical Xplorer™, the first optical fiber multimeter (OFM). Optical Xplorer makes fiber testing simple for all frontline technicians, beginner or expert—radically speeding up the process while empowering them to do more on-site. The device verifies optical links in seconds, and if faults are suspected, it finds and identifies them automatically. EXFO unveiled this new product category simultaneously at ANGA COM, Europe's leading broadband exhibition; and at Fiber Connect, North America's premier event for fiber broadband professionals.
A revolutionary approach to frontline fiber testing
Optical Xplorer is more than an improvement on existing test tools—it takes a completely new approach to fiber installation, turn-up and repair. This highly-intuitive job helper boosts frontline technician efficiency; ensures better network quality; and minimizes delays and costs associated with escalating problems to expert technicians.
"Powered by multiple patent-pending technologies, Optical Xplorer marks a turning point in the world of fiber testing," said Stephen Bull, EXFO's Vice-President, Research and Development. "And it's the kind of innovation that only EXFO, backed by unmatched fiber optic testing expertise, could invent, define and deliver."
The urgent need to transform fiber deployment testing procedures
Telecom operators are under significant pressure to deploy more high-quality fiber optic networks faster and at a lower cost to meet skyrocketing demand for bandwidth and prepare for next-generation technologies like 5G. The complexity of testing methods of procedure (MOPs), the necessity to outsource and the shortage in skilled frontline technicians make it difficult for both operators and contractors to attain a good return on investment (ROI) while ensuring networks are deployed right the first time.
"Too often, frontline technicians are equipped with test tools that are a compromise between cost, complexity and functionality," said Stéphane Chabot, EXFO's Vice-President, Test and Measurement. "With our customers' challenges in mind, we developed a revolutionary new fiber testing solution that's easy to use—tailor-made for frontline field technicians, no matter their level of expertise. Optical Xplorer will help operators and contractors accelerate ROI, improve first-time-right metrics and increase customer satisfaction by equipping their technicians with a purpose-built tool and leaner methods of procedure."
Optical Xplorer delivers three key technological innovations:
