The workshop aimed to equip African Internet Exchange Point (IXP) operators with knowledge about optical transceiver technologies (basics), which, subsequently, will enable them to offer better and innovative services to their peers.
The online workshop was facilitated by Flexoptix. The workshop covered fundamental, technical and operational aspects of SFP modules, plus Flexbox Training – Configurations/Reconfigurations, Troubleshooting with Power Meter & Source, Distance Analysis and DWDM Tuning.
