EXFO s FTB-8510B Packet Blazer brings performance assurance to
Ethernet-based services. Its wide range of test functionalities provides all the
necessary measurement tools for verifying service-level agreements (SLAs)
between service providers and their customers.
The FTB-8510B module tests connectivity in its native format:
10/100/1000Base-T, 100Base-FX, 100Base-LX, 1000Base-SX, 1000Base-LX and
1000Base-ZX for today s Ethernet services. The FTB-8510B module is the ideal
tool for turning-up and troubleshooting Ethernet-based mobile backhaul,
commercial and wholesale services.
Combined with its rack-mounted manufacturing/R&D-environment counterpart,
the IQS-8510B Packet Blazer, the FTB-8510B simplifies and speeds up the
deployment of Ethernet services.
