FIRECOMMS
CTO TO DISCUSS DEPLOYMENT OF POF FOR IPTV SERVICES WITHIN
THE HOME AT OFC/NFOEC
Cork, Ireland — March 21,
2007 — Firecomms CTO, John Lambkin, will discuss
the use of lowcost Plastic Optical Fiber (POF) as a solution
for the successful deployment of IPTV services within the
home at the Optical Fiber Communication Conference & Exposition
and the National Fiber Optic Engineers Conference (OFC/NFOEC)
(www.ofcnfoec.org).
During his talk at the POF Pavilion on
March 29 in Anaheim, California, Lambkin will describe
how Firecomms’ OptoLock™ plugless transceiver
technology enables the installation of a fiber link within
the home to be as simple as wiring up a set of audio speakers
while simultaneously providing a quality-of-service link
at data rates up to 250 Mbps.
In conjunction with this discussion,
on booth 1569 at the conference which runs from March 27
through 29, Firecomms will demonstrate how this new Fast
Ethernet POF port, that provides instant termination of
bare and incorporates Firecomms Fast Ethernet transceivers,
significantly quickens and simplifies the connection of
devices in communications and infotainment networks.
