ACG Research expects the global market for optical data center interconnect (DCI) technology will increase from just over $1.1 billion in 2014 to $4.7 billion in 2019, a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 44.9%. « Uptake of optical DCI is being driven by the migration of services to data centers and the cloud as service […]
On a data transmission network, one of the main cause for insertion loss on a fiber link is macro bending. This is commonly caused by tight installation or handling. As Fiber-to-the-Home (FTTH) networks lead to a significant increase of fiber installation in the last mile, even G657 fiber are used. the space constraints become increasingly […]
Customer experience management (CEM or CXM) is the process that companies use to oversee and track all interactions with a customer during the duration of their relationship. This involves the strategy of building around the needs of individual customers.[1] According to Jeananne Rae, companies are realizing that « building great consumer experiences is a complex enterprise, […]
ER-Telecom, one of the three largest Internet and pay TV providers in Russia, has deployed Ekinops’ 360 optical system to provide 100G DWDM wavelengths over its nationwide network. Stretching over a distance of more than 5,000km, ER-Telecom’s network serves 56 cities across eastern and southern Russia. The operator turned to Ekinops when it needed to […]

The Federal Communications Commission (FCC) recently adopted rules that require providers to directly notify consumers of plans to retire copper networks at least 3 months in advance. The ruling also increases the notice period for non-residential retail customers and interconnecting carriers from 3 months to at least 6 months. According to a press release by […]
Global GPON revenue declined 7 percent quarter-over-quarter to reach $1.32 billion. This decline was primarily associated with declining ASPs across all regions. Year-over-year, revenue increased by 32 percent. Asia Pacific continues to drive the majority of demand, where China is currently in the process of large scale FTTH deployments due to government mandated regulation. OLT […]
High power fiber cables are primarily applied in industrial applications and are used for transferring the laser beam from the source to the application even at distances of several meters. The flexible connections find their application especially in the areas of materials processing like laser welding, cutting and drilling. For the laser fibers to operate […]
Optical fibre has incredibly low loss coupled with extremely high capacity, making it a unique transmission medium. From the point of view of the access network The Shannon Limit can effectively be ignored. Distance is not an inherent limitation as optical signals can travel 70–80 km before they need to be amplified. Instead the limitations […]
US Conec unveiled its new MTP-16 multi-fiber connector at the 2015 European Conference on Optical Communication (ECOC) in Valencia, Spain (Sept. 19-21) The company states that the MTP-16 connector will support next-generation 400G applications while offering the highest density physical contact for the multi-fiber connector format available on the market today. The MTP-16 connector family […]
