To keep pace with bandwidth demands, network operators are supporting higher transmission rates and upgrading both the network capacity and the number of transport links. 10Gbp/s metro network links are now being upgraded to 100Gbp/s links to support IoT, big data, Cloud and 5G services. It is becoming imperative to understand the impact of 100G Ethernet transport in the metropolitan area network, the challenges of new optical interfaces and most importantly how to implement the right testing processes to deliver flawless quality of service (QoS).
In this webinar, we will focus on testing examples using an advanced solution that integrates EXFO's unique flexible Open Transceiver System.
Key takeaways:
- Understanding the evolution of the optical interface
- 100G technology review: What's out there in terms of transceivers?
- 100G Ethernet testing simplicity using the iSAM application
- An overview of OTU4 testing use cases
- Transceiver validation and testing considerations using the iOptics application
