Several public sources
• Native 24-fibre capacity and software-upgradeable 400G-to-800G systems target DCI and intra-data centre links
• Remote and cloud-orchestrated test workflows automate fibre validation across the full deployment lifecycle
The fact
EXFO has launched native 24-fibre-capable testers for DCI and intra-data centre applications, alongside 400G systems upgradeable to 800G via software. The company is also developing tools for hollow-core and multi-core fibre testing, and offers cloud-hosted EXFO Exchange for workflow integration. Remote and partially robotised test execution is being introduced for deployment and operations.
The assessment
Fibre testing is shifting from manual instrumentation to software-driven operational infrastructure embedded across deployment, validation and lifecycle monitoring. Scaling fibre networks for AI workloads depends on automation as a baseline requirement rather than an efficiency upgrade. Testing is becoming a continuous operational layer integrated with network buildout and management across distributed data centre architectures.
What to Watch
Adoption of 24-fibre testers in live DCI deployments and rollout of 800G-upgradeable hardware across AI and cloud infrastructure.
