CityFibre has fully automated its network infrastructure platform test environment to accelerate its speed to market, with testing up to 100x faster and test capacity increased by 300%.
The automation has been enabled by test infrastructure from Red Helix and design and implementation expertise from IGXGlobal UK.
Tests which previously took 15 minutes will take under 10 seconds and CityFibre now can run tests outside core working hours.
The automation solution enables rapid analysis and interrogation of test data, while maximising equipment lifecycle by reducing manual touches in an otherwise high-touch environment.
As a result, CityFibre is now able to accelerate operational readiness and bring new products, network technology and software upgrades to market sooner.
David Tomalin, CityFibre’s Group CTO, said: “This will deliver even better outcomes for our wholesale partners and the homes and businesses they serve.”
