Tellabs and EXFO showcased a live demonstration of “the ever-increasing bandwidths possible over PON while preserving investments in existing fiber cabling, splitters, and equipment, at the Winter BICSI Conference.
Siemon will lead a panel discussion – PoE Lighting and IoT: A Winning Problem-Solving Combination” at the 2020 BICSI Winter Conference & Exhibition that will highlight best practices in designing and deploying a fully integrated intelligent building that lowers both construction and operation costs.
Industrial Ethernet is very sensitive to delays caused by dropped or damaged data frames (sometimes called packets). Just a few dropped or damaged packets can cause a machine to shut down. These problems are often intermittent and can be caused by harsh industrial environments.
IDEAL Networks showcased its data cable, network, and IP CCTV testers and certifiers at the BICSI 2020 Winter Conference. Among the products demonstrated at the show is the company’s LanTEK IV cable certifier, which provides a 7 second test time for Cat 6a cable and certifies links up to Cat 8, including TCL and Resistance Unbalance measurements.
Corning® CleanAdvantage™ technology uses a new factory cleaning and sealing process to ensure a pristine end face upon first use for all our EDGE™ and EDGE8® solutions. Thus, saving you as the installer time and money during the initial installation. So go ahead and uncap that CleanAdvantage connector so that you can connect with confidence.
Edge provides a huge opportunity to host many use cases on one infrastructure, manageable from a single pane of glass. Getting close to end-users not only allows the operator to tap directly into the new revenue streams for ultra-low latency/ultra-reliable services, but also to provide “edge-as-a-service,” and other infrastructure-as-a-service and hosting services to other enterprises.
Active optical cables are key components in the high-speed systems needed to handle the exponential increase in data traffic that will come with 5G. According to the figure being passed around at DesignCon 2020, only 15% of the 5G infrastructure has been installed so far. That means a tremendous number of transmitters, small cells, antennas, data centers, and devices will be needed — and millions of miles of cable, connecting continents, data centers, service providers, and users.
OFC, The Optical Fiber Communication Conference and Exhibition, is the premier international event for the latest advances in optical communications and networking. The conference starts March 8th in San Diego.
The recent outbreak of the coronavirus reminded us how fragile the supply chain is for telecom. As it turns out, the Hubei province of China is where much of the world’s optics and lasers are built that are the key component in every device that is used to communicate in a fiber network.
“International Trends in Technology and Workforce,” a new report from CompTIA identifies cybersecurity readiness and the struggle to find enough workers with the right skills to meet their workforce as top concerns for 2020. More than 1,500 business and technology professionals from 14 countries shared information on their business priorities for 2020, as well as perceptions of emerging technologies, cybersecurity, workforce skills, professional development strategies and the future of work.
