"Increasingly, providers are being asked to deliver more bandwidth and
services over their existing fiber infrastructure," says Jaxon Lang,
general manager and vice president, Broadband Network Solutions (BNS),
CommScope. "We work closely with our customers around the globe to find
faster, more efficient methods of bringing fiber to the home or
business, while minimizing the CapEx spend on new cabling networks."
In the OSP EXPO seminar titled, "Strategies
for Delivering More Services Over PON Architectures," Ryan Chappell,
manager, Global Business Development, BNS, CommScope, will discuss
tactics for network operators to get more out of their existing fiber.
Chappell will provide examples of how to add new devices such as
distributed antenna systems, high-definition security cameras, Wi-Fi
hotspots and small cells to existing PON infrastructures, which can
create new revenue streams for broadband communication providers. The
seminar is scheduled for September 2, 2015 at 8 a.m. MDT, and is free to
all registered OSP EXPO attendees.
CommScope will showcase its fiber-to-the-home (FTTH) architectures
including fiber
indexing and the fiber
distribution hub (FDH) 4000.
Fiber indexing uses standardized building block components including
connectorized and indexed service terminals with hardened multi-fiber
optical connectors to create plug-and-play network that is faster to
deploy. It can reduce cabling cost by as much as 70 percent.
The FDH 4000 addresses the need for high-density, weatherproof
enclosures, in a market where there is increasingly restrictive
permitting ordinance for new construction. It addresses the market's
needs for below-grade and underground FTTH deployments.
Last week, CommScope announced
it completed its previously announced acquisition of TE Connectivity's
(NYSE: TEL) Telecom, Enterprise and Wireless businesses.
"We are excited to move forward as one company positioned for continued
success," said Eddie Edwards, CommScope
president and chief executive officer. "Together, we look to accelerate
industry innovation, solve more wired and wireless network challenges,
and better serve customers in more markets around the world. By uniting
our complementary solutions, technologies and geographic and market
coverage, we have created a stronger platform for competing successfully
around the world."
For the near term, the newly-acquired TE Connectivity BNS businesses
will be operated as one of CommScope's business segments, alongside of
the existing CommScope segments of Wireless, Enterprise and Broadband.
OSP
Expo will take place September 1-3, 2015 at the Colorado Convention
Center in Denver, CO. CommScope will display its network solutions at
booth #313.
