FTBx-88800 Series - 800G test solutions for the lab

When 800G DSPs are integrated within transceivers, it’s important to ensure they can transmit signals reliably as well as accurately break out 800G signals.

The FTBx-88800 Series validates 800G signal-breakout accuracy across multiple configurations (i.e., 2x 400GE, 8x 100GE or 4x 200GE), a critical step in evaluating DSPs during development and prior to manufacturing.

Smaller form factors, reduced cost, lower power and the ability to support new, faster speeds are constantly top of mind for transceiver vendors—and their customers. To deliver those check-box items, transceiver vendors must ensure that onboard DSPs are working properly within their optics.

With the FTBx-88800 Series, perform FEC testing and test various DSP properties—including verifying signal-breakout capability of 800G transceivers. With support for both QSFP-DD and OSFP optics on the FTBx-88801, EXFO delivers the ability to test both types of 800G optics on the same test solution. Empower teams to validate DSPs and transceivers with confidence, knowing EXFO-expertise is behind every intuitive GUI and test process.

Transport-technology hardware requires thorough testing to support consistent, stable interconnections between switches and other hardware—both within and between networks.

With the FTBx-88800 Series, set automated routines that test every aspect of a switch by generating layer 2 MAC-layer traffic across ports to ensure that network alarms are working accurately. Experience solutions that leverage the power of automation to ensure high-quality and cost-effective 800G testing programs.

Reliable, predictable performance between and within data centers is critical. Hyperscalers’ mission-critical, data-center storage applications rely heavily on stable, reliable Ethernet links as their communications backbones.

Simulate real-world conditions and put 800G technologies to the test with the FTBx-88800 Series. Includes breakout signal testing—especially important within high-density environments like data centers. Implement 800G reliably with test solutions equipped with built-in knowledge and easy-to-interpret GUIs.
