The optical access market, including the utility telecom market, is expected
to be amongst the fastest growing and most lucrative markets in the years
to come. MRV Communications provides proven solutions for optical transportation
networking (i.e., Railroad, Highway, Gas Pipeline) as well as for utility
and energy access networks (Electric/Gas/Oil).
Municipal power, water and gas boards are stepping into carrier and broadband
services in metro and access areas in addition to their traditional services.
Digging and fiber installation may cause high cost investments and numerous
problems. In addition, it is extremely important to optimize fiber
use to avoid unprofitable use of investments and resources. In order
to provide Fiber-to-the-X (FTTx), Carrier-to-Carrier Lambda services, or
ISP Optical Ethernet Access Services (or ISP to ISP) as well as Storage (SAN)
and SONET services, the municipality has to build a flexible network and
make the most advantageous use of its fiber.
To obtain this objective, MRV offers a wide variety of fiber-optimization
and Wave-Division
Multiplexing products, as well as a complete array of Ethernet access
technology. MRV technology can package up to 16 Gigabit Ethernet channels
onto a single pair of fiber, with Quality of Service (QoS), using the OptiSwitch Ethernet switching product coupled with Colored
Optical Ethernet modules. This solution enables PoP-to-PoP Optical Gigabit
services as well as wavelength services with only the addition of passive
optical add/drop multiplexers. To achieve SAN and SONET integration,
we offer the FiberDriver™ fixed and
modular WDM solutions providing transparent integration of network services.
To complete the network and make the most out of the existing resources,
the FiberDriver line also includes a wide variety of signal repeaters, distance
extenders, media converters and other fiber-optimization tools. In
some cases, fiber is simply unavailable. MRV solves this problem as
well, using Free-Space
Optics (FSO) technology through the TereScope™ line of optical wireless products. Instead of waiting for fiber-installation,
simply connect using this secure, easy-to-deploy, wireless technology from
building to building at up to OC48 speeds. MRV has also partnered to provide Power-Line Communications (PLC) networks, providing Internet access over the electrical power lines.
For years, MRV has delivered cutting-edge Optical Ethernet, FSO, WDM,
QoS
and Traffic Engineering (TE) technologies for transportation pipes, and
FTTx access solutions, offering an exceptional variety of multimedia broadband
services, built with a variety of advanced optical building blocks ranging
from media converters to core IP routers.
MRV focuses on what today’s Utilities Broadband Networks really need. The
flexible combination of our various advanced optical technologies, including
optical wireless technology, customized for the requirements of Utilities
operators, enrich and expand the network while providing greater security
and higher speed solutions more cost effectively.
