TYTEC AB working to get fiber to your datacenter

At TYTEC AB, we understand that robust and compliant fiber networks are the backbone of modern data centers. Operating across major data center hubs in Stockholm, Falun, Sandviken, Gävle, Copenhagen, Oslo, and Helsinki, we know downtime is never an option. That’s why we’ve invested in EXFO’s PXM/LXM—a top-tier duplex and multi-fiber optical loss test set (OLTS) that empowers us to deliver rapid and accurate fiber certifications. Below, we’ll explore the value-added services we provide using this powerful solution and how they help keep your data center operating at peak efficiency.


1. End-to-End Tier-1 Fiber Certification

Fast and Reliable Compliance

With the PXM/LXM, TYTEC AB can test insertion loss, length, and polarity across single-fiber and multi-fiber cables in just one second per test. This rapid turnaround cuts days off standard certification timelines—an invaluable benefit when you’re racing to meet project deadlines or scale out quickly.

Why It Matters to You

  • Reduced Deployment Time: Faster testing means quicker installations and project sign-offs.
  • Industry-Standard Compliance: We follow TIA, ISO, and IEC guidelines to ensure your fiber infrastructure is ready for current and future needs—vital for data centers in regions like Stockholm, Copenhagen, Oslo, and Helsinki where density and reliability are paramount.

2. Expanded Multi-Fiber Testing (Beyond 12 Fibers)

Futureproofing High-Density Networks

Large-scale data centers often work with 16, 24, or more fibers in a single trunk cable. Our EXFO PXM/LXM can be used with dual test kits or loopback methods to certify these higher fiber counts without sacrificing speed.

Why It Matters to You

  • Support for Higher Speeds: As your network evolves to 100G, 400G, or beyond, multi-fiber trunks become the norm.
  • Scalable Testing: Whether you need to certify 12 fibers or 24, we can handle it in the same time frame—crucial for high-capacity facilities in Falun, Sandviken, and Gävle.

3. Detecting Hidden Polarity Issues

First-Time-Right Approach

Polarity mix-ups can cause major headaches in a data center environment. Our PXM/LXM automatically checks for correct polarity on both duplex and multi-fiber links.

Why It Matters to You

  • Immediate Troubleshooting: We spot polarity issues during certification, not after the network goes live—saving valuable time and preventing costly rework.
  • Complete Peace of Mind: Ensuring your fibers are correctly routed helps guarantee a seamless integration of new links and equipment upgrades, be it in Stockholm, Oslo, or any other major hub.

4. One-Cord Referencing for Accuracy

Streamlined Standards Compliance

Through EXFO’s Click-Out adapters, we can conduct one-cord referencing for both duplex and multi-fiber cables, a method recommended by global standards organizations.

Why It Matters to You

  • Consistent, Accurate Results: Minimizing the number of reference cords reduces potential measurement errors.
  • Simplified Setup: Speedy transitions between MPO, MTP, LC, SN, or MDC connectors keep your certification process on schedule, vital for busy data center operators in Copenhagen, Helsinki, and beyond.

5. Comprehensive Reporting and Analytics

Documenting Your Network Health

Our certification process includes generating detailed EXFO FastReporter reports—essential documents for audits, SLA verification, or future upgrade planning.

Why It Matters to You

  • Proof of Compliance: Demonstrate to stakeholders and clients that your infrastructure meets industry standards.
  • Actionable Insights: Clear pass/fail results guide immediate decisions on whether to deploy, repair, or optimize specific links.

6. Additional Value-Added Services

Beyond fiber certification, TYTEC AB offers a full suite of data center services to ensure holistic network performance:

  1. Fiber Inspection & Cleaning: Using advanced EXFO scopes, we identify and eliminate contaminants that reduce link quality.
  2. OTDR Analysis: Our optical time-domain reflectometer services pinpoint issues like splices, bends, or breaks—crucial for timely repairs.
  3. Network Design Consulting: Looking to scale your data center in Sandviken, Gävle, or anywhere else? Our experts can advise on everything from cabling architecture to futureproofing strategies.
