Highlights

Support for 800ZR and the full suite of coherent optics

Coherent transceivers have become indispensable in long-haul data center and metro applications. Amidst the rapid pace of technological progress, coherent optics are also advancing, exemplified recently by the significant leap to 800ZR. This transition represents a crucial milestone in the development of high-speed communication networks, offering unprecedented levels of bandwidth and performance. EXFO’s FTBx-88810 is the first portable test solution to support 800ZR, as well as the full suite of coherent optics like 400ZR, 100ZR and Open ZR+.

Take 800ZR testing from lab to live

EXFO delivers the industry's first portable, compact 800G test solution. Combine the FTBx-88810 Series with the latest version of EXFO’s FTB-1 Pro portable platform and easily move our 800G test solution from lab to live, take your work from the lab directly to your live deployments—for the utmost in test flexibility and efficiency.

Test twice as fast with 800G dual-port testing

Our 800G dual-port, dual-test solution is available on EXFO’s portable FTB-4 Pro platform. Get more done and stay ahead with the industry’s most versatile 800G testing solution.

Supporting multiple protocols

800G technology has entered its second, more mature, wave. Transceivers and switches are more stable and reliable, setting the stage for a new era of innovation—enabling more integrated, application-driven network solutions and supporting a broader range of protocols and features.

EXFO’s FTBx-88810 Series is built to match the pace of this evolution. Going beyond Ethernet, it offers robust, high-fidelity validation for advanced transport protocols like OTN and Fibre Channel. Equipping and empowering customers to confidently test and deploy real-world, multi-protocol applications with precision and performance.

OSFP and QSFP-DD test ports

The FTBx-88810 Series offers a mix of OSFP and QSFP-DD test ports.  

Need to test OSFP and QSFP? Then your choice is the FTBx-88811, featuring 1x OSFP port and 1x QSFP-DD port.
Need to test only QSFP-DD? Then choose the FTBx-88810 with its 2x QSFP-DD ports.

Pair either test module with the latest FTB-1 Pro and get the flexibility of a truly portable 800G test solution. Whichever test module you choose, we’ve got the network test solution that best fits your lab’s 800G testing requirements.
