On display will be Robo-Cab \u2013 an innovative, fully managed automatic direction finder (ADF) system for the management of copper networks \u2013 and revolutionary fibre testing technology, Fast Light. <\/p>\n<p>As a complete copper network management system, Robo-Cab fully automates the whole cabinet, including copper cross connect, VDSL splitter jumpering, copper line testing, VDSL DSLAM port testing and cross connect testing.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cRobo-Cab takes speed and efficiency to the next level and has revolutionised the operation and management of FTTC,\u201d said Frank Kaufhold, Managing Director of UTEL. \u201cBy automating the interconnect technology, Robo-Cab gives control back to operators by enabling them to deliver new services to customers on an almost on-demand basis.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Robo-Cab allows for connection changes to be made and tested from remote locations, therefore significantly reducing OPEX. <\/p>\n<p>\u201cBy using Robo-Cab, costs, number of call-outs and the risk of human error are all drastically reduced,\u201d Kaufhold added. <\/p>\n<p>Also on display is UTEL\u2019s unique Fast Light technology, which is used as the basis for a centralised G-PON fibre management system and is the only existing technology in the world able to reliably detect ONT reflections through 128 split PONs without expensive wavelength dependent reflectors. <\/p>\n<p>\u201cAt UTEL, we have been researching and designing centralised copper test systems for many years and have developed a good understanding of the issues operators face,\u201d said Kaufhold. \u201cOperators needed a game-changing solution and that is why we created Fast Light. Fast Light provides an easy-to-use system that can test fibre cable systems and report any issues affecting service.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>In addition to Fast Light and Robo-Cab, delegates attending CommunicAsia will also be able to view the latest Copper Test Access Solutions, which have already been implemented by a number of customers, including BT. Copper test heads, ETSI racks, Local Loop Unbundling (LLU) TASMs, Test Access Switches and Custom TASMs, will be among these technologies on show at UTEL\u2019s stand. <\/p>\n<p>UTEL representatives will be on site to discuss the company\u2019s latest breakthroughs and provide unique insight into upcoming FTTH trends and how operators can prepare for the future. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>UTEL, a leading independent research and development company for telecommunications systems, will be showcasing its latest technology at CommunicAsia2016.
