Considerations in VDSL/VDSL2 Implementation
August 3rd, 2010Today’s service providers face more competition than ever before. The boundaries separating services (voice, data, and video) are disappearing and customers seeking those services are being courted by telephone, cable, satellite, and wireless providers, each of which offers some or all of the components users want. The days of the single service provider are clearly numbered, and competition from providers who can deliver a full slate of services can be a very real threat to an existing subscriber base.
VDSL2 technology can be part of the solution for delivering these services over a home’s existing infrastructure. Download our free white paper title "Considerations in VDSL/VDSL2 Implementation" for a brief overview of VDSL2 and its application.

Suttle First to Offer Plastic Optical Fiber “Jack”
March 19th, 2010Firecomms, a leading developer of highspeed Plastic Optical Fiber (POF) transceivers, announces that it has licensed its OptoLock® interconnect system to Suttle, Inc., a leading supplier of communication connectivity products for the telecom and datacom industries worldwide. OptoLock, an easy-to-use, low-cost housing for instant termination of bare Plastic Optical Fiber (POF), provides plugless terminations that allow for simpler, quicker connections of communications and infotainment network devices.
“Suttle is excited to offer the first commercially available POF to POF passive OptoLock wall plate adapter system, which we’ve added to our SpeedStar line of modular connectivity,” says Bill Heuer, senior product manager. “Firecomms has pioneered the development of POF as a low-cost alternative for copper cabling in home networking, which we look forward to support.”
“With the rapid adoption of OptoLock by an increasing number of equipment providers, we are pleased to license our technology to Suttle, Inc., a well established telecom vendor that has been supplying communication equipment to companies worldwide since 1910,” says Lawrence Thorne, Firecomms’ vice president of sales and marketing, the Americas. “Suttle, like all suppliers of OptoLock products, will manufacture its product based on a common mechanical specification for the fiber interface.”
Suttle’s new SpeedStar OptoLock wall plate adapter system will be available in Q2 2010. Due to its ease of use, large core tolerances, and low costs, POF is enjoying substantial growth in home network and point-to-point interconnection. The annual worldwide POF market is estimated to be worth over $2.5 billion” in 2011, according to market research by Information Gatekeepers.
