Prysmian Taking FTTH to CEBIT
Milan, March 12th, 2007 - Prysmian Telecom Cables & Systems will be demonstrating its latest optical fibre solutions with a strong focus on Fibre-to-the-Home (FTTH) at this week's CeBIT exhibition in Hannover, Germany - ( March 15 - 21). Prysmian will be located in Hall 14 Stand F18.
Prysmian has developed a range of products which together provide a full optical passive system covering a wide variety of today's network configurations. Prysmian will be showing all of these technologies at CeBIT with live demonstrations of the Sirocco Blown Fibre system together with the Zephyr range of mini blown cables, Oasys connectivity and QUICKDR@W® pre-connectorised customer lead-in cable - all of which are fully compatible with Prysmian's new bend insensitive fibre - CasaLight(TM).
Director of Prysmian's global telecom cables and optical fibres business, Mr. Giovanni B Scotti commented: "Fibre-to-the-Home is now clearly a well established technology in many regions, particularly the Far East and the USA. Europe has lagged some way behind until now but the momentum is clearly growing and we believe that 2007 will be a significant year for FTTH in this part of the world".
Broadband continues to be a major theme in the telecoms world and take-up rates of high bandwidth services in Europe and elsewhere continue to rise as ever increasing levels of real content become available to the end user. With global broadband connections currently being added at a rate of more than 6 million per month (source: KMI) there is a clear need to strengthen the physical infrastructure which supports the vast amount of data traffic flowing in telecoms networks, particularly the 'last mile' link to the consumer.
