When you look at this image, do you see a chalice? Do you see two men in profile? Now that I’ve mentioned both images, can you see both images at once? Fiber testing can be like this trick, you have to be able to see more than what is obviously in front of you. In […]

FTTH-PON Q and A

Our recent webinar with Light Reading, Lessons Learned: Efficient Deployment & Maintenance of FTTH/PON Networks, garnered several questions from the attendees. We thought that even those who may not have caught the live webinar might benefit from this Q&A. If you’d like to see the webinar recording, please visit the Light Reading Testapedia page.  Q. Is […]

Simplify FTTH/PON Testing with “Smart” Fiber Features The rise in fiber adoption by service providers is fueling the demand for workers who can skillfully build and certify fiber plants, especially for deployment of Fiber to the Home (FTTH). This means that installers and contractors, who are traditionally trained in copper or coax network installation, must […]

 This is a re-post of an article in Gazettabyte, © Roy Rubenstein 2017 The race is on to deliver 400-gigabit optical interfaces in time for the next-generation of data centre switches expected in late 2018. The industry largely agrees that a four-wavelength 400-gigabit optical interface is most desirable yet alternative designs are also being developed. Optical […]

Migrating to G.fast is the most economical way to bring Gigabit speeds to customers because the existing copper or coax infrastructure is reused between the DPU to the customer’s client. This avoids rewiring for the last 250 to 300 meters. All segments of the hybrid network: fiber, copper line, interior twisted pair or coax wiring, […]

It’s just about a month away and the industry is already abuzz about one of the world’s leading shows for broadband, cable, and satellite – ANGA COM. Thought leaders in broadband, gigabit networks, DOCSIS 3.1, DAA, WiFi, FTTx, IoT, Big Data, and more will gather to share what’s on the horizon for these cutting-edge technologies […]
