SAN JOSE, Calif., Sept. 26, 2017 /PRNewswire/ -- VIAVI Solutions (NASDAQ: VIAV) announced today that its SmartClass Fiber MPOLx MPO optical loss test sets and CERTiFi cloud-based enterprise workflow were recognized by the judges of the annual Cabling Installation & Maintenance Innovators Awards program. The judging panel consisted of cabling and communications system specifiers, designers, integrators and managers with vast professional experience.
VIAVI's honors included:
- SmartClass Fiber MPOLx – Gold Winner. The MPOLx from VIAVI Solutions is the industry's first dedicated optical loss test set that can perform all MPO Tier 1 (basic) test and certification requirements, including the need to test for length, optical loss, polarity and inspect fiber end-face condition. With the ability to meet all Tier 1 (basic) requirements in a single solution, the MPOLx helps technicians ensure a fast and reliable workflow, delivering comprehensive test results in less than 6 seconds for all 12 fibers.
- CERTiFi – Silver Winner. CERTiFi enhances overall project workflows by syncing test and certification instruments—such as the popular and proven Certifier40G and SmartClass Fiber OLTS-85P—and managing them via a centralized cloud-based system. From that vantage point, an administrator can create and distribute project designs, assign projects to team members, pre-load test instruments with tasks and required test criteria, and assimilate, analyze and share test results in real time. With CERTiFi, team members establish alignment at every stage of their projects—from creating design requirements and assigning tasks, to performing tests and analyzing project metrics, which can significantly reduce the time, cost and errors associated with offline communications.
"VIAVI is proud to be recognized by Cabling Installation & Maintenance. As enterprises and data centers strive to keep up with bandwidth upgrades, and especially as they supplement their in-house technician teams with contractors, they need get-it-done tools coupled with advanced workflow management," said Kevin Oliver, Vice President and General Manager, Converged Instruments and Virtual Test, VIAVI Solutions. "We continue to grow our MPO characterization and certification offerings for our customers, and CERTiFi leverages VIAVI's extensive experience in cloud-based workflow management in a platform tailored for enterprise test and certification."
