| Prysmian Telecom Takes to the Road in Major European FTTH Tour Prysmian Telecom Cables & Systems is to embark on a major initiative to support the growing uptake of Fibre To The Home (FTTH) technology in Europe. The 'FTTH European Roadshow' is due to commence in the UK on 4 September and will visit 15 countries over 11 weeks. This will include Holland, Denmark, Norway, Sweden, Germany, Czech Republic, Slovakia, Poland, Hungary, Austria, Slovenia, Italy, Spain and France. Highlights of the roadshow will include a specially constructed, interactive exhibition trailer demonstrating Prysmian's latest FTTH passive product solutions - blown fibre, miniature blown cables, preconnectorised customer solutions, new vertical riser systems for multi dwelling units, a range of new FTTH connectivity products and much more. Information will also be available on Prysmian's range of optical fibres including CasaLightTM, the bend Insensitive fibre developed by Prysmian specifically for FTTH applications. A team of FTTH product specialists will support the local Prysmian staff throughout the Roadshow, providing expert advice on both the product and network design aspects of building a FTTH system. FTTH adoption is expanding rapidly worldwide and in Europe especially, where activities are gathering momentum amongst both local authorities and the more traditional telecom operators, who are starting to build optical 'last mile' networks. Prysmian believes that by taking the technology to this increased and more widespread customer base, in the form of a Roadshow, it will greatly assist potential operators who are aware of the opportunities offered by FTTH, but may not be familiar with the 'mechanics' of building a last mile network. write your comments about the article :: © 2007 Networking News :: home page |
