ARRIS (Nasdaq: ARRS) will demonstrate its broadband access, advanced video and transport solutions to Korean service providers at the KCTA Show in Seoul, Korea, March 3-6, 2010. Korean cable operators and ISPs face stiff competition from national telecoms providers in delivering ultra high speed data service and video, and are looking for the most cost-efficient and optimized infrastructure solutions to meet their growing customer demands.
Occam Networks®, Inc. (Nasdaq:OCNW), a leading broadband access supplier offering multiservice access platform (MSAP) solutions based on pure packet technologies, announced today that its ON 2500 series GPON Optical Network Terminals (ONT) have been added to the List of Materials for use in telecommunications networks by USDA Rural Development borrowers.
GAO Instruments recommends this compact Optical Time-Domain Reflectometer (OTDR)
Broadcom Corporation (Nasdaq: BRCM), a global leader in semiconductors for wired and wireless communications, today announced that it has signed a definitive agreement to acquire Teknovus, a leading supplier of Ethernet Passive Optical Network (EPON) chipsets and software. EPON is a technology providing broadband services at up to 10 Gigabits per second over fiber optic cables. EPON represents approximately 94% of the FTTx (e.g. Fiber-to-the-Home) connections in the Asia Pacific region. According to the Dell’Oro Group, the Asia Pacific PON market is expected to grow from 22.8 million to 94.5 million subscribers by 2014, a CAGR of 33% (2009-2014).
MIT researchers have demonstrated the first laser built from germanium that can emit wavelengths of light useful for optical communications. It's also the first germanium laser to operate at room temperature. Unlike the materials typically used in lasers, germanium is easy to incorporate into existing processes for manufacturing silicon chips. So the result could prove an important step toward computers that move data — and maybe even perform calculations — using light instead of electricity.
JDSU (NASDAQ: JDSU and TSX: JDU) today announced its next-generation wavelength selective switch (WSS) module, the Mini 50 Gigahertz (GHz) WSS. Providing optical components that help network equipment manufacturers and service providers optimize networks has become increasingly important as consumers continue to access more bandwidth-intensive applications, such as video, over the internet.
Luxtera, the worldwide leader in Silicon CMOS Photonics, today announced its collaboration with Siemon, a leading global manufacturer of IT cabling infrastructure systems. Based on Luxtera’s 40Gbp/s single-mode fiber transceivers, Siemon introduces its Moray™ Active Optical Cabling (AOC) product family. Siemon’s Moray™ AOC launch expands Siemon’s extensive portfolio of copper and fiber data center solutions. By collaborating with Luxtera, Siemon enables its customers to work with a single data center solutions provider to achieve high performance and extended reach optical interconnect at lower cost than legacy multimode fiber.
Opnext, Inc. (NASDAQ:OPXT), a global leader in state-of-the-art laser technology and high speed optical communications, today announced that it has developed the world's first ultra-high speed Surface Mount Technology (SMT) multiplexer Integrated Circuit (IC) for 100Gbps applications.
FiberLight, LLC, a leading optical networking provider, announced today they are constructing a new 100-mile fully diverse network linking Baltimore to Washington, D.C.
Light is better than radio waves when it comes to some wireless communications, according to Penn State engineers. Optical communications systems could provide faster, more secure communications with wider bandwidth and would be suitable for restricted areas like hospitals, aircraft and factories.
