Technology: Teknovus presents solutions for China's fiber networks

Beijing (BUSINESS WIRE) - Teknovus, the leading provider of Gigabit Ethernet Optical Network (G-EPON) chips for the deployment of triple-play services in broadband access networks, is demonstrating integrated optical monitoring and management solutions for efficient operation of EPON-based fiber networks in China. Teknovus is adding optical monitoring and management capabilities to all products, supporting China's rapidly expanding FTTx networks.

Teknovus' China Country Manager Mark Jiang and Rick Li, Senior Director of Technology and Strategic Development will be demonstrating and presenting optical monitoring and management for EPON (Ethernet Passive Optical Network) at the upcoming Optinet Conference on May 28 and 29th in Beijing. Teknovus enables carriers and cable operators to proactively monitor optical performance and perform fault analysis remotely. This network-wide diagnostic capability is increasingly important to global carriers as their EPON deployments approach or exceed one million subscribers. With more than nine million EPON-based FTTx subscribers worldwide, Teknovus provides the complete optical monitoring and management solution, enabling service providers to further reduce network-related OPEX and ensuring superior network security.

"Using commercially-available Teknovus chips, we will show results from our optical transceiver fault and ODN (Optical Distribution Network) fault monitoring and diagnosis, along with a detailed demonstration of their integration into existing and expanding FTTx networks," stated Mr Rick Li, Senior Director of Technology and Strategic Development for Teknovus. "We enable service providers to incrementally adopt remote monitoring, taking advantage of Teknovus' superb architecture at both the OLT (Optical Line Terminal ? Central Office) and ONU (Optical Network Unit ? Customer Premises). Our embedded software supports the streamlining of provisioning, management and maintenance."

The addition of advanced optical monitoring capability further contributes to the strong feature set Teknovus is developing for high-growth carriers in Asia. Just six months ago, Teknovus co-hosted a seminar with China's Ministry of Information Industries (MII) for senior representatives from China Telecom, China Netcom, China Unicom, the State Administration of Radio, Film and Television (SARFT) and China Railway Telecom, including their headquarters and key provincial branches. Major equipment vendors also participated, including Huawei, ZTE, Fiberhome, UT Starcom, Nokia-Siemens, and Alcatel. Teknovus presented its Turbo-EPONTM and test results for the 1:64 (1 OLT to 64 ONUs) solution with adherence to QoS (Quality of Service) parameters and SLAs (Service Level Agreements) under fully-loaded real traffic scenarios to 64 end-users.
