EXFO FTB-85100G 100 Gbit/s Ethernet Analyzer

Overview

The EXFO FTB-85100G Packet Blazer is the first rugged and portable 100 Gbit/s Ethernet analyzer on the market, enabling teams to efficiently share equipment across lab, field, and early deployment environments. Purpose-built for applications requiring thorough testing, portability, ruggedness and ease of use, it offers powerful layer 1/2/3 traffic generation and analysis features to stress and validate network elements and services against demanding corner cases.

The analyzer supports multiple transceiver interfaces (CFP, CXP and QSFP) and provides unprecedented full-line-rate testing of the physical coding sublayer (PCS), with an intuitive graphical user interface (GUI) for streamlined operation.
