Flexible Optical Test Optimization (FlexOTO) Software and Solutions

Minimize Cost-Of-Test for 800G/1.6T and CPO/NPO high lane count testing

While 400 Gigabit Ethernet (400G) continues to be deployed in mainstream datacenter networks, there is already growing demand for 800G optical networks, and 1.6T technology is on the horizon. This rapid advancement in technology introduces challenges for optical transmitter test to reduce cost, increase capacity, test more optical lanes, and ensure compliance with complex emerging industry standards.

FlexOTO application software is designed for test system designers who are creating design validation and high-volume optical test systems. FlexOTO software drives down cost-of-test while maintaining the highest measurement integrity by automating control of Keysight DCA-M instruments, FlexDCA software, and optical switching hardware.
