In addition, JDSU has secured multiple design wins for TrueFlex ROADM line cards. JDSU currently has the largest design pipeline for transport line cards in the company's history, with eighteen active customer programs.

JDSU introduces new PacketPortal™ Micro Ethernet Probe (JMEP).

Developed based on decades of optical communications and test experience at JDSU, the new JMEP transceiver works with the PacketPortal platform and can be deployed in various parts of a network where SFP technology is used as a flexible and cost effective way to measure key performance indicators like throughput, delay, jitter and packet loss.

JMEP is fully integrated with the JDSU EtherAssure™ solution to help network operators to activate, monitor, troubleshoot and optimize networks and ensure that service level agreements are met with their customers. Applications range from business services to mobile backhaul for 3G and 4G/LTE networks. It is also part of JDSU's Small Cell Assurance Solution that helps mobile operators ease the complexity of rolling out and monitoring small cell networks.

JDSU is now shipping the first end-to-end CFP2 test system for 100G networks.

CFP2 transceivers are being used by network operators to help reduce the cost of 100G implementations with smaller and more efficient optical components that take up less space and use less power. JDSU's new test system is the only solution designed to verify transmission all the way from the physical layer and through the Ethernet and IP services within optical transport network layers simultaneously. The system will be demonstrated at OFC working in conjunction with a new CFP2 LR4 module that JDSU expects to offer in the fall of 2013.

Additional new test solutions from JDSU to be highlighted at OFC/NFOEC.

JDSU is also launching a new optical spectrum analyzer (OSA) specially designed to support flexible-grid wavelength division multiplexor (WDM) networks and another new OSA designed to test reconfigurable optical add-drop multiplexers (ROADMs) while reducing test time from 15 minutes down to 30 seconds.
