The FTB-8120 Transport Blazer supports test signals from 64 Kb/s (DS0/E0) up to 2.5 Gb/s (OC-48/STM-16), with upgradeability to 10 Gb/s (OC-192/STM-64), ensuring that customers' investments can be leveraged as their future testing needs evolve. The FTB-8120 Transport Blazer is also available in 155 Mb/s (OC-3/STM-1) or 622 Mb/s (OC-12/STM-4) configurations, offering users a wider range of options to better meet their immediate testing requirements without sacrificing upgradeability. The FTB-8130 Transport Blazer offers a full range of testing rates from 64 Kb/s to 10 Gb/s. Both test modules support an extensive list of DSn, SONET, PDH PDH - Plesiochronous Digital Hierarchy and SDH (Synchronous Digital Hierarchy) The European counterpart to SONET. See SONET. SDH - Synchronous Digital Hierarchy features, allowing users to perform a wide range of tests from simple bit-error rate (BER (1) (Basic Encoding Rules) A set of encoding rules for ASN.1 notation, which is a method for defining data structures. See ASN.1. (2) (Bit Error Rate) The average number of bits transmitted in error. See BERT. 1. ) analysis to more advanced network characterization and troubleshooting. Optional next-generation SONET/SDH hardware versions for both modules offer a smooth upgradeability path to Ethernet-over-SONET/SDH test functions. The combination of advanced SONET/SDH testing capabilities with the small and lightweight FTB-200 platform delivers the industry's most versatile and technically advanced handheld SONET/SDH test solution on the market. The FTB-8120 and FTB-8130 Transport Blazer modules also come equipped with EXFO's exclusive SmartMode feature. SmartMode provides automatic discovery of the SONET/SDH signal structure and real-time monitoring of all discovered high-order paths as well as user-defined low-order paths, providing the ideal solution for quick and simple isolation of network faults. EXFO is the first and only vendor to offer a powerful, multi-channel SONET/SDH monitoring solution in a compact platform. "Network operators worldwide are increasingly looking for Looking for In the context of general equities, this describing a buy interest in which a dealer is asked to offer stock, often involving a capital commitment. Antithesis of in touch with. more compact test solutions to fulfill their day-to-day testing duties without sacrificing functionality and upgradeability," said Benoit Fleury, EXFO's Vice-President of Protocol-Layer Product Management. "The FTB-8120 and FTB-8130 modules, combined with the leading edge FTB-200's full suite of optical and protocol test modules, are establishing the new standard in the industry by offering field technicians all the critical test elements to quickly and efficiently turn up, maintain, and troubleshoot SONET/SDH networks in a single, reasonably priced, future-proof solution."
