Since
1993, Foxcom has been developing fiber optic solutions for the
professional satellite, TV and video distribution markets.
Foxcom’s
BsmarTV suite keeps apace with the ever growing demand for more
bandwidth, bringing HDTV, voice and broadband data via a single wire to
the home. In addition our next generation Sat-Light/Platinum series
reaffirms Foxcom’s continued commitment to maintaining and developing
professional satellite communication links to earth stations, ISPs,
cable TV headends and other communication gateways.
Foxcom currently has sales in over
fifty countries and has provided more than 20,000 fiber optic links to
diverse market segments.
Building on its strong technological
foundation of optical broadband solutions, Foxcom is an industry leader
in product quality, reliability and customer satisfaction. In addition
to designing and manufacturing innovative systems its R&D department is always attuned to
customer feedback. Consequently they have introduced several “firsts”
in the TV, video, audio, and data transmission industries.
Organized
around a global distribution network with sales offices and
warehouses, Foxcom is dedicated to providing:
- Comprehensive
RF-to-fiber solutions
- Unparalleled customer service to
service providers and operators
- A leading edge in the world of fiber
optic communications
The
Benefits of Fiber to the Home Broadband Connections
More
than 10 million homes worldwide already have fiber-to-the-home
broadband connections because the technology holds many advantages over
current technologies.
A key benefit to FTTH -- also called
FTTP, for “fiber-to-the-premises” broadband -- is that it provides for
far faster connection speeds and carrying capacity than twisted pair
conductors, DSL or coaxial cable. For example, a single copper pair
conductor can carry six phone calls. A single fiber pair can carry more
than 2.5 million phone calls simultaneously [source: Federal
Communications Commission].
Experts at the FTTH Council say
fiber-to-the-home connections are the only technology with enough
bandwidth to handle projected consumer demands during the next decade
reliably and cost effectively. The technology is already, affordable,
as businesses around the world are demonstrating by getting into the
business as they speculate on consumer demand.
Fiber has a virtually unlimited
bandwidth coupled with a long reach, making it “future safe,” or a
standard medium that will be in place for a long time to come [source:
ICT Regulation Toolkit].
FTTH will be able to handle even the
futuristic Internet uses some experts see coming. Technologies such as
3D holographic high definition television and games will someday be
everyday items in households around the world. FTTH will be able to
handle the estimated 30-gigabyte-per-second needs of such equipment.
Current technologies can’t come close.
The FTTH broadband connection will
spark the creation of products not yet dreamed of as they open new
possibilities for data transmission rate. Using the past as a guide,
think what items that now seem commonplace were not even on the drawing
board five or 10 years ago. FTTH broadband connections will inspire
new products and services and could open entire new sectors in the
business world, experts at the FTTH Council say.
FTTH broadband connections also will
allow consumers to “bundle” their communications services. For
instance, a consumer could receive telephone, video, audio, television
and just about any other kind of digital data stream using a simple
FTTH broadband connection. Such an arrangement would be more cost
effective and simpler than receiving those services via different
lines, as is often the case today.
