News - Friends & Case Studies around the World
We have been very fortunate for the past years to travel over much of the world and work on many interesting and challenging projects. But more importantly, I have had the good fortune to meet some wonderful people and their families.
Our "Friends" page gives us an opportunity to share some of our trips and experiences with those of you who are visiting our web site. We will post new adventures from time to time..
VoxGotha is revolutionising the deployment and build of fiber optic networks through its unique and innovative Gpon models.
E-Fiber™ is a serie of pre-connected kits or pre-finished kits optimised for FTTx applications, environmentally friendly so there’s little disruption to the local area during the installation.
E-Fiber™ ready-to-install systems designed, developed and tested by Fiber –Gem are taylor made and engineered by different leading global manufacturers and software developers (List available upon request) of the FTTh industry, which offer significant advantages for deployments in FFTx ‘Notspots’ and ‘Slowspots’ areas.
Case Study - Extreme Deployment - Camp Taqquadum - Marine tactical systems - 1st Force Service Support Group - Iraq
Context: Blazing desert heat, exposure to sand and dust, drastic temperature changes from day to night and constant use are taking their toll on the tactical communications gear that Marines use here. To take the strain off this equipment, the I Marine Expeditionary Force made a switch to a "commercialized" system throughout its bases in Iraq.
Objective: Marines can rig a field communications network, including radio, phone and e-mail connectivity, in less than a day. They can then tear everything down, move to a different location and set it all back up quickly and efficiently...
The core of the system is a multi-cable "spine," made up of lines for phones, e-mail and Internet, which winds through almost the entire camp.
While a small tractor with a big dirt-digging chainsaw, known as a "ditch witch," plows most of the longer trenches, the Marines have to do a lot of the remaining work, including digging loose sand out of the tractor-dug troughs, using nothing more than shovels and pick-axes.
As the ditch diggers lay the new lines through other units' areas, they split them off, so that other Marines from the company can then connect them to junction boxes. This is how they add various units into the network.
The new system is faster, more reliable and more redundant, cutting down on time required for repairs. "One of these lines could get cut and data would still find its way to where it needs to go," said Cortes, a 25-year-old Los Angeles native. "It's going to make life a lot easier out here for us."
The Marine Corps will be taking the active material purchased gear, except the buried cable, with it when it completes its mission in Iraq that the cable can be used by whomever takes over the base when the Marines depart .

We were among the first telecommunications operators in the fiber technology field on the territory of Iraq and Afghanistan, and as such we have enjoyed a successful cooperation with the Department of Defense and individual soldiers from several years.
