Quebec City. EXFO Inc. today announced the introduction of its MaxTester 635G (MAX-635G) test set, a handheld G.fast CPE emulation solution that supports ITU-T G.9700 and G.9701 recommendations, as well as current VDSL2 and ADSL2+ technologies. The MAX-635G targets operators rolling out ultrabroadband to subscribers in today’s competitive broadband residential services market.
“EXFO has successfully demonstrated the MAX-635G G.fast test solution to a number of major service providers, and we are very excited by the resulting interest and feedback concerning this product,” said Stéphane Chabot, vice president of EXFO’s Physical Layer Test Division. “We are seeing significant interest from our customers concerning the deployment of new G.fast technology solutions. They are attracted by its fiber-like speeds, which can be achieved more economically than full fiber-to-the-home (FTTH) deployments.”
