Offers high throughput and flexibility in configuring for various testing scenarios. Equipped with a backplane for power and data communication among test modules. Interfaces via Ethernet, USB, and graphical user interface for interaction and control. Suitable for lab and field environments, facilitating accelerated deployment and maintenance of telecom networks. ## Function High-density modular test platform supporting hot-swappable modules for optical, transport, and Ethernet testing. Accommodates multiple test modules simultaneously for parallel testing operations. Features redundant power supplies, integrated touchscreen display, and remote control capabilities via Ethernet/USB interfaces. Supports automated test sequencing, result storage, and report generation. Modules interface through high-speed backplane architecture enabling inter-module communication and synchronized measurements. Platform provides centralized power, processing, and user interface for various network testing applications including fiber characterization, DWDM analysis, protocol testing, and service activation in lab and field environments. ## Platform 19-inch rack-mounted, modular test platform supporting a wide range of optical and transport test modules, designed for high-density, centralized test configurations in telecom operators' and network equipment manufacturers' labs and production environments. ## Application Designed as a 12-slot rackmount or benchtop modular platform, this equipment supports advanced photonic and optical test modules, enabling comprehensive testing of photonic integrated circuits, WSS, ROADM, and passive optical components. It integrates a quad-core Intel processor with Windows 10 IoT Enterprise OS, offers hot-swappable module capability, extensive connectivity (USB 3.0, LAN, AMT), and supports automation via standard industry protocols (SCPI, IVI, RESTful, TCP/IP, VISA, GPIB, RS-232). It facilitates remote monitoring/control, multi-user resource sharing, and runs custom test automation using various IDEs and programming languages, making it ideal for research labs and manufacturing environments focused on fiber optic and photonic device testing. ## Accessories Requires FTBx series test modules. Interfaces include twelve FTBx module slots, one RJ45 Gigabit Ethernet port, one RJ45 10/100 management port, one DisplayPort video output, one USB 3.0 Type-A port, and four USB 2.0 Type-A ports. Features BNC connectors for 10 MHz and 1 PPS timing synchronization input/output. Power is supplied via a standard IEC 60320 C14 AC inlet. ## Interface Two ethernet RJ45 ports (one front, one rear) for remote control. Six USB 3.0 Type-A host ports (two front, four rear). One USB Type-B client device port for laptop/PC control. HDMI video output. Two BNC ports for 1PPS GPS/clock inputs. EXT CLK port for external timing reference. AUX port for future expansion. The rear accommodates up to 12 test modules via proprietary high-speed backplane connectors supporting various optical and electrical test interfaces based on inserted modules. ## Images - - - -
