Supported work scope and services

Primarily, the European OTIC in Madrid focuses on testing of transport networks under realistic conditions in terms of deployment scenarios and topologies, providing an environment able to emulate field scenarios (e.g., availability of long fiber distances), driven by the experience of Telefonica in the roll-out of transport networks in different situations in its operational companies.

The lab can be used to perform system and interoperability testing, including multi-layer, multi-technology and multi-vendor scenarios. The tests can cover both functional and performance testing.
