The MAX-940 Fiber Certifier OLTS delivers the fastest
automated loss, length and polarity certification of fiber links
against international industry standards, maximizing technician
efficiency and reducing the cost of ownership, with 3 years of
peace of mind included.
QUEBEC CITY, Sept. 29, 2015 /CNW Telbec/ - EXFO Inc. (NASDAQ:
EXFO) (TSX: EXF) announced today the addition of the MaxTester 940
Fiber Certifier OLTS to its solution portfolio for data centers and
enterprise markets. Designed to help installation contractors,
network engineers and IT maintenance technicians achieve faster,
first-time-right system acceptance, this fiber certifier
brings unmatched user experience and efficiency together
with optimal cost of ownership in the latest tablet-inspired
form factor.
The new EXFO certifier delivers outstanding speed and optical
performances and has an advanced suite of user-assistance
features. With its step-by-step reference wizard, intelligent fault
diagnosis and patented margin meters, the MAX-940 provides expert
guidance throughout the test process to ensure immediate efficiency
by first-time users while removing risk of errors or negative
loss—a common source of issues in certification jobs.
Boasting a tablet-inspired design with a 7-inch high-resolution
touchscreen and an intuitive Windows-like interface, the MAX-940
offers integrated Wi-Fi and Bluetooth connectivity and supports
EXFO Connect cloud-based test asset management. Moreover, its
on-board reporting capabilities allow technicians to document their
work live from the field with no need for post-processing back at
the office. This means technicians can close jobs, get paid and
move to the next one faster.
The Max-940 certifier adopts and applies the best industry
practices: both the main and remote units have full-fledged feature
sets and are compatible with the market-leading FIP-400B automated
inspection probe series to quickly inspect connector endfaces at
both ends. Now both technicians can see, understand and act on the
results while taking out dirty or damaged connectors from the
equation.
Last but not least, EXFO's Max-940 Fiber Certifier allows you to
optimize your cost of ownership with a 3-year warranty and a
calibration interval of 3 years. That equates to more peace of mind
and less hassle.
"With the emergence of big data, OTT services and the advent of
virtualization—from cloud services to SDN and NFV, more and more is
expected from the networks. Higher speeds, greater storage capacity
and more agility are required, and we need to ensure that the
network infrastructure can support these transformations without
impacting the customer quality of experience and business-related
SLAs," said Stephane Chabot,
Vice-President of EXFO's Physical Layer Test Division. "With the
MAX-940 Fiber Certifier, we are proud to bring a state-of-the-art
certification solution with added value in user guidance and its
unique efficiency-boosting features, based on our 30 years of
experience and expertise in optical testing."
The MaxTester 940 Fiber Certifier is available today in various
kits and configurations. To learn more about this new solution,
