KVH Industries, Inc., (Nasdaq: KVHI) announced today that it has received a new $6.4 million order for its fiber optic gyro (FOG)-based TG-6000 inertial measurement unit (IMU) for use in the U.S. Navy's MK54 torpedoes. Shipments for this order are expected to begin during the first half of 2010 and continue into 2011.
Verizon is the first telecommunications company in the world to successfully field-test a passive optical network system known as XG-PON that can transmit data at 10 gigabits per second (Gbps) downstream and 2.4 Gbps upstream, four times as fast as the current top transmission speeds supporting the company's all-fiber FiOS network.
Peregrine Semiconductor Corporation, a leading supplier of high-performance RF CMOS and mixed-signal communications ICs, today announced the first pair in a series of new SPDT RF switches addressing the needs of wireless infrastructure, 2.4GHz Industrial, Scientific and Medical (ISM), and broadband applications for fiber optics and Multichannel Multipoint Distribution Service (MMDS). The PE4250 and PE4251are the result of a joint design and development activity with long-standing partner OKI Electric Ltd. (Tokyo). Product engineers from both OKI and Peregrine collaborated to develop leading-edge design techniques to meet market demands, resulting in the latest high-performance UltraCMOS™ Silicon-on-Sapphire (SOS) RFICs.
Lightwave Logic, Inc. (OTC Bulletin Board: LWLG) a technology company focused on the development of the "Next Generation Electro-Optic Platform" for applications in high speed fiber-optic telecommunications and optical computing, today announces that independent verification of earlier reported test results of its proprietary materials has been completed.
Packet-optical transport system (P-OTS) technology, which is now being deployed in metro networks, will start to be deployed in carrier core networks in 2010, triggering a big step in the transformation of telecom networks to a pure packet-based architecture, according to a major new report from Heavy Reading, the research division of Light Reading.
A 270km optical fiber has been transformed into the world's longest laser, a feat its inventors believe will lead to a radical new outlook on information transmission and secure communications
Millions of dollars travel through the New York Metropolitan Area's communications networks every hour. With so much at stake, businesses need a trustworthy network that handles transactions quickly and reliably.
Fiber optics work on the principle of total internal reflection, in which light is enclosed in an element encased by glass in air of low refractive index. Although, the basic technology remains the same, present day glass fibers are much more tensile, cost efficient and effective. The ongoing progress in the field of medical fiber optics has led to the development of inexpensive lasers for photodynamic therapy, fiber miniaturization, and complex data paths. The need for minimally invasive, small and efficient optical fibers is fast gaining importance with the growing need for minimally invasive surgery and diagnostics.
Alpheus Communications, operator of an extensive fiber optic network across Texas, and HyperCube, LLC, a premier provider of local and national tandem services to carriers across the United States, today announced that HyperCube has selected Alpheus to provide critical network services to further enhance HyperCube’s growing volume of voice traffic.
Corning Cable Systems LLC, part of Corning Incorporated’s (NYSE:GLW) Telecommunications segment, will supply product and design assistance to Case Western Reserve University and its partners in a historic initiative to test the power of super-high-speed Internet access to change people’s lives in inner-city neighborhoods.
