OFC 2008, San Diego, CA - February 26, 2008 - ColorChip, a leading developer and provider of fiber optics components based on PLC technology, announced today at the OFC in San Diego, CA the release of GEPON (EPON) PX20 for the FTTH market.
"We see an interesting and growing need for GEPON applications with a reach of 20km and a requirement for remote monitoring and diagnostics features," said Moshe Price, CEO of ColorChip, "recently, samples were shipped to some of our customers and more samples will be provided upon demand".
ColorChip's transceivers are based on the SystemOnGlass(TM) (SOG(TM)) concept, developed and patented at ColorChip. This concept simplifies the design and manufacturing process compared with the traditional bulk optic solutions. The transceivers support Digital Diagnostic & Monitoring (DDM) providing diagnostic and monitoring capabilities for power supply, temperature, transfer and receive status, alert towards end of life and more. The product is SFF-8472 compliant.
"By supporting DDM, our GEPON transceivers provide an added value to the network provider" said Jaime Reloj, VP sales at ColorChip, "This functionality delivers remote diagnostics and control over the network. This should reduce the network management cost, improve network reliability and provide faster service response for GEPON networks."
