Our state-of-the-art solutions seamlessly integrate into railway fiber backbones, metro optical networks, utility networks, transport hubs, and submarine cable landing stations, delivering unparalleled automation and network reliability.

As urban environments increasingly become data-driven, reliable and automated fiber infrastructure emerges as a foundational necessity. From real-time IoT applications to high-capacity transportation systems, XENOptics' automated fiber solutions ensure robust and continuous network operation. Leveraging a patented 3D optical switching topology, our optical switches provide precise, non-blocking remote switching capabilities. This significantly reduces operational expenses, enhances network reliability, and ensures continuity during critical incidents.

Seamless Automation for Transport and Urban Fiber Networks

With urban environments becoming increasingly data-driven, fiber infrastructure is vital for the effective management of smart-city initiatives and transport systems. XENOptics' solutions enable full remote fiber management, eliminating manual interventions that traditionally disrupt traffic and incur high operational costs. Our optical switches facilitate automated, remote-controlled fiber switching, ideal for complex environments such as railway fiber backbone automation, metro optical-network switches, and smart-city fiber switching.

Our advanced robotic optical switches are built for mission-critical scenarios, ensuring zero interruption during switching processes through their passive latching technology. By utilizing automated remote management, XENOptics significantly reduces human error and related downtime. Our switches feature a comprehensive remote monitoring capability that enables operators to manage the network efficiently, maintaining optimal performance even during maintenance operations or unforeseen disruptions.

Key benefits include:

  • Fully Automated Fiber Switching: Achieve non-blocking fiber port switching with no manual intervention, reducing downtime significantly.
  • Disaster-Ready Reliability: Field-replaceable modules and passive latching technology ensure continuous traffic flow during outages or maintenance.
  • Remote Monitoring and Diagnostics: Integrated systems offer real-time diagnostics through an advanced network management system (NMS), providing a holistic view and management capabilities from a centralized location.
  • Low Optical Loss: Industry-leading performance with insertion loss below 0.8 dB and return loss above 55 dB (UPC connectors), ensuring network efficiency and signal integrity.

This level of automation is particularly crucial for railway fiber backbone networks, where seamless connectivity and uninterrupted service are mandatory for safety and operational efficiency. Additionally, our fiber management solutions enable metro optical networks and utility networks to handle increasing data demands without compromising reliability or performance.
