Bidirectional single core, dual core, and multi-core fiber verification tester

EXFO FTB Lite 975Bidirectional single core, dual core, and multi-core fiber verification testerDetailed introduction:

EXFO FTB Lite 975 is an innovative fiber optic verification tester designed specifically for modern high-density data centers and high-speed network deployments. It aims to simplify and accelerate the certification process from single core to multi-core (24 core) optical fibers through highly automated and integrated design.

Core functions and features

EXFO FTB Lite 975The core value of it lies in integrating multiple testing functions into a compact device and significantly improving testing efficiency and accuracy through automation technology.

Its main features include:

Integrated testing capability: This device is one of the industry's native testers that supports 24 core fiber optic cables, and can meet the testing needs of high-density fiber optic deployments in ultra large scale data centers and driven by artificial intelligence. It combines the functionality of a bidirectional optical loss test set with the readiness capability of an optical time domain reflectometer on a compact device, achieving coverage from basic certification to advanced troubleshooting.

Comprehensive automated testing: The equipment provides end-to-end automated testing, with special support for bidirectional contactless testing and visibility of light return loss. This means that technicians do not need to operate back and forth at both ends of the link to automatically measure bidirectional loss and optical return loss, greatly reducing human errors and time costs in on-site operations.

Simplified operation process: Introduced one click SmartRef ™ Reference setting function. This function enables fast and accurate instrument reference setting (zeroing) through visual diagnosis, ensuring that the initial steps of verification and troubleshooting are simple and reliable.

Intelligent cloud integration: The tester can seamlessly integrate with the EXFO Exchange cloud platform and automatically upload test results to the cloud. This feature is crucial for high-density data center projects that require a large amount of documentation and certification, ensuring that construction can be completed on time, according to specifications, within budget, and providing complete test reports for final acceptance.

Main application scenarios

The FTB Lite 975 is primarily designed for scenarios that require high speed, density, and reliability for fiber deployment

Construction of ultra large scale data centers and AI data centers: In response to the rapid construction of data centers due to the surge in AI demand, their high chip testing capabilities and automation functions can greatly accelerate deployment speed, helping operators gain a competitive advantage.

High capacity certification inside and outside the data center: From a large number of Tier 1 OLTS certifications to complex links that require optical return loss measurement, the FTB Lite 975 can accurately and quickly complete testing requirements.

Troubleshooting and Maintenance: With its OTDR ready capability and visual diagnostic capabilities, it has also become an ideal tool for technicians to perform daily maintenance and quickly locate fiber optic link faults.
