EXFO) (TSX: EXF) is pleased to announce that it has been
awarded Frost & Sullivan's 2016 Market Share Leadership Award
for Global Portable Fiber Optic Test Equipment (FOTE) for the sixth

overcome the issues that operators and Web 2.0s face in their
network transformations for longhaul, metro/backhaul, data center
interconnects, and broadband FTTH/FTTA/C-RAN applications. EXFO
also launched its process automation and compliance solution
TestFlow, which orchestrates and automates complex procedures and
enables customers to share and check data through detailed and
relevant analytics dashboards. This solution delivers high
efficiency and increased profitability to any project.
