DON’T MISS THESE GREAT ADDITIONAL EXHIBIT FLOOR PROGRAMS INCLUDED WITH YOUR FREE EXPO PASS. EXHIBIT FLOOR PROGRAMS FTTx CENTER* FTTx technology continues to push ﬁber closer to users at home (FTTH) and at work (FTTB). FTTx has moved from ﬁeld trials with only a handful of users to worldwide deployment that connects millions of users, and it shows no signs of losing momentum. The demand for triple-play services (voice, video and data) continues to increase substantially as the growing popularity of HDTV, IPTV and interactive communications cause bandwidth to be consumed at rates only ﬁber optics can provide. The FTTx Center features live demonstrations of working ﬁber-optic systems, network design and mapping software, ﬁber termination and splicing, cable preparation and testing. A wide array of products that encompass every aspect of FTTx technology, from components to systems, will also be on display, including equipment for testing, splicing, storage and cable management. Pick up a copy of the FTTx Locator Map to help you easily ﬁnd all FTTx-related exhibits, visit the center’s literature area, or just stop by and discuss your project with subject matter experts! Coordination of the FTTx Center is once again provided by The Light Brigade.
