Recently, the independently developed fgOTN Tester by OPWILL Technology (Beijing) Co., Ltd. has officially obtained the authoritative Sci-Tech Novelty Search Certification from the Chinese Academy of Sciences Literature and Information Center. The report explicitly confirms that this product is the world's first fine-grained Optical Transport Network (fgOTN) optical transmission test instrument compliant with ITU-T international standards, marking a critical technological lead for China in the next-generation optical communication testing field.
This Sci-Tech Novelty Search was conducted by the Chinese Academy of Sciences Literature and Information Center, China's top scientific and technical information institution, under Report No. CX20260397GX. The novelty search conclusion states that the OPWILL fgOTN Tester integrates comprehensive multi-standard transmission and data testing functions including OTN, SDH, SONET, PTN, Ethernet and fgOTN on a single hardware platform. No identical solutions have been reported in public literature at home and abroad except by the entrusting party, demonstrating significant innovation and technological leadership.
As a next-generation core optical transport technology oriented towards high-speed transmission of 100G/400G/800G and even beyond 1Tbps, fgOTN imposes extremely high requirements on the protocol compatibility, functional integration and performance accuracy of test equipment. The successful development of the OPWILL fgOTN Tester breaks the industry pain points of single-function and scattered-platform traditional test equipment, realizing full-scenario test coverage of multiple generations of optical communication technologies on an integrated hardware platform. It provides key test support for the commercial deployment, network construction and operation & maintenance of fgOTN technology.
As a leading enterprise in China's optical communication testing field, OPWILL has always focused on the independent R&D of next-generation optical transmission testing technologies. The passing of this novelty search certification is not only authoritative recognition of the company's technological innovation capabilities, but also highlights the technological discourse power of Chinese enterprises in the international optical communication standards arena. In the future, OPWILL will continue to delve into cutting-edge fields such as fgOTN and high-speed optical module testing, providing high-performance, localized testing solutions for global communication operators and equipment manufacturers, and contributing to the evolution of global optical communication networks towards higher bandwidth, lower latency and greater intelligence.
