CityFibre boosts cloud-based insight with EXFO Exchange

CityFibre has deployed EXFO Exchange throughout its extensive network, helping to deliver cloud-based testing results four times faster.

The fibre company uses EXFO Exchange – described as a next-level solution for field testing – to give customers access to the full gigabit speeds and high reliability provided by the CityFibre network.

Tim Clark, Head of Passive Architecture and Engineering at CityFibre, explained: “We have deployed EXFO Exchange throughout our network because it remotely provides a fast, accurate picture of what’s happening at any given location through cloud-based insight.

“Accurate data is key to ensuring our network is optimised for the best high-speed, high-reliability, and right-first-time connectivity.”

CityFibre reports test jobs can be completed four times faster due to automation delivered by the EXFO Exchange platform.

The deployment follows signing of a five-year agreement between EXFO and CityFibre for EXFO Exchange to provide efficient management of test data and compliance, equipping field technicians and managers with insight for faster job completion and improved forward-looking operational compliance.

Automated testing, improved collaboration, and comprehensive reporting are some of the benefits CityFibre has experienced using EXFO Exchange.
