Polar Communications selects Occam Networks platform

Nov 09, 2009 (CORPORATE IT UPDATE via COMTEX) --

Company: Occam Networks, Inc. (OCNW)

Broadband access supplier Occam Networks Inc (Nasdaq:OCNW) announced on Monday that US telecoms services provider Polar Communications will begin deploying a full FTTH network using the Occam Networks platform.

No financial details were disclosed.

According to the company, as service and operational requirements increased, Polar realised its long term FTTN strategy would be unable to keep up with future demand. The solution was a shift to a FTTP strategy that began two years ago and will continue with the current Occam deployment.

To accommodate the expected growth in last mile traffic, the services provider is also deploying Occam's 10Gb Ethernet aggregation solution.

Because DSL continues to play an important role in Polar's broadband network, the company will use Occam's BLC 6000 MSAP and the platform's common OS to simplify the hybrid copper, FTTP and 10Gb aggregation network.

The company's long term strategy is to continue a steady FTTH build and when it is finished, replace its original FTTN infrastructure by extending fibre to the home, Polar said.
