Bola Technologies Announces the Addition of Extended L-Band to Dynamic Optical Filter Array Platform Ahead of OFC 2025

STATELINE, Nev., March 11, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- Bola Technologies, a global fiber optic testing and measurement equipment manufacturer, today announced it has added extended L-band capability (186.0 THz to 190.95 THz) to its established extended C-band Dynamic Optical Filter Array (DOFA) platform available exclusively through OgMentum. This enhancement provides customers with increased wavelength range, enabling more optical testing amid the proliferation of AI/ML and other bandwidth-consumptive applications. Bola's extended C- and L-band DOFA platform will be showcased at the Optical Fiber Communications Conference and Exhibition (OFC) in San Francisco, California, from April 1-3 at OgMentum Booth #5115, along with other high-performance solutions from Bola Technologies, FiberLabs Inc., SYCATUS and PFO Instruments.

Bola's extended L-band DOFA platform provides the same industry-leading technology, performance and configuration flexibility (1x1, 1x2, 1x4 and Dual 1x1, 1x2 and 1x4) as its existing extended C-band offering. Bola's extended C- and L-Band DOFA platform verifies the quality of optical components, subassemblies and networks as internet service providers drive bandwidth expansion to meet mounting customer demands. Bola Technologies' DOFA platform is currently available in user-defined options with CE-certified benchtop and rackmount offerings. Please contact [email protected] to arrange a meeting.

"Since the DOFA platform's launch, we've received overwhelmingly positive feedback from Bola's customers validating the platform's flexibility, cost efficiency and performance," said Jake Weise, OgMentum President. "This enhancement reflects the industry shift to extended L-band-capable optical networking infrastructure, underscoring our commitment to delivering precise and cost-effective testing solutions that meet our customers' needs."
