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).
