Our Products

OTDRs are at the core of EXFOs optical expertise. Leading the OTDR market with a 48% market share and the broadest OTDR portfolio, EXFO offers an OTDR built smart for any type of network.

Based on field knowledge and 20 years of OTDR expertise, EXFOs OTDRs are designed to meet network operators latest requirements. Combining intelligence and accuracy with user-friendliness, our solutions require minimal training and provide you with measurements you can trust, minimizing truck rolls and accelerating workflow in the field.

With numerous singlemode and multimode configurations available at several wavelengths, our OTDRs come in handheld or modular formats.

Intelligent Optical Link Mapper (iOLM)
Innovation is front and center at EXFO, and the iOLM is a prime example of a game-changing solution. The iOLM lets you take advantage of the full power of your OTDR, bringing automation to a new leveland enabling even the untrained technician to become a test expert in no time.

Stay On Top of Your Network Quality. Always.
These products are used as fixed test equipment (as opposed to portable), serving as remote test resources for the mobile workforce. Through optical switching and operating from a network node, they centralize, automate and simplify the execution of various fiber tests commonly performed throughout the different phases of the network lifecycle.

Built on EXFO's world-leading OTDR technology, these products qualify, certify, activate, troubleshoot and monitor any point-to-point (P2P) or point-to-multipoint (P2MP) network link. Thanks to their small form factor, high port density, low-power consumption and carrier-class design, they can be installed at locations where a large quantity of fiber-optic cables converge in access networks, whether at a central office (CO), a point of presence (POP) or a local exchange site. These innovative solutions can also be integrated into any network management system, using a full set of documented APIs.

Bandwidth demand keeps increasing, thanks to the growing popularity of data-hungry applications such as video-on-demand, voice-over-IP (VoIP) and videoconferencing. Service providers therefore need to deploy faster, more reliable networks, using novel technologies such as reconfigurable optical add-drop multiplexers (ROADM) or 40G networks.

Optical Spectrum Analyzers to Characterize CWDM and DWDM Networks
Reducing downtime in CWDM and DWDM networks calls for an accurate measurement of optical signal-to-noise ratio (OSNR) . However, ROADM and 40 Gbits networks present a new and unique challenge, as the existing OSNR measurement methods yield incorrect results.

EXFOs WDM-Aware method is the answer to this new challenge, providing reliable i-in-band OSNR measurement on a per-channel basis.

Chromatic dispersion (CD) and polarization mode dispersion (PMD) hamper transmission in high-speed networks. These speed-limiting phenomena threaten the integrity of the signal starting at 10 Gbits, which in turn affects the quality of service.

EXFO: PMD and CD Test Leader
EXFO is the worlds no. 1 in dispersion testing, earning the trust of tier-1 customers globally. Our innovation and leadership is also recognized by standards bodies such as the IEC, TIA and ITU.

As high-bandwidth deployments become more common, network topographies evolve and specific CAPEX and OPEX challenges arise. Thanks to time-proven expertise, EXFO is in a unique position to deliver dispersion test solutions that address your reality.

Thanks to user-friendly features and various options (video fiber inspection probe, talk set, visual fault locator, etc.), the FTB-3930 MultiTest Module requires little training and offers the flexibility that field crews look for.

It's a fact: dirty andor damaged fiber connectors are one of the most common cause of optical network problems. And in today's context where operators must speed up their fiber deployment and operate under amplified OPEX pressure, any network failure prevented can make a difference.

Whether you are working with single-fiber or multifiber connectors, including MPO and MTP, or with various infrastructures (FTTx, FTTA, DAS and small cells or data centers), proper connector inspection is an essential best practice for fiber testing and installation, which must be included in all daily workflow procedures.

EXFO's automated and intelligent fiber inspection solutions are designed to speed up and simplify this critical step to any fiber testing and help you deploy faster, more reliable fiber networks.

Did you know you could inspect bulkhead and patchcords without swapping tips? Here's how.

Power meters are part of the toolbox essentials for all technicians installing or maintaining any type of fiber networks. There are general-purpose power meters, semi-automated ones, as well as power meters optimized for certain types of networks, such as FTTx or LANWAN architectures. Its a matter of choosing the right gear for the need.
