Actelis Networks, Inc. has announced introduction of next generation hybrid fibre-copper solutions designed to enable deployment of cyber-safe, gigabit connectivity to locations where fibre installation is difficult and costly.
The newly introduced solutions support a variety of IoT applications for rail, military and campus networks, 5G/mobile base stations as well as residential and commercial broadband, including Multiple Dwelling Units (MDUs) such as apartments and condos. The introduction follows tests with rail and military customers that exceeded expectations.
With the launch of the GigaLine 800 (GL800) and GigaLine 900 (GL900) product families, Actelis solves two of the biggest connectivity issues involving services to locations that are hard to reach with fibre. The first challenge is getting gigabit connectivity to buildings in a timely and cost-effective manner. The second challenge is distributing gigabit services throughout buildings without disturbing tenants with unnecessary rewiring.
Actelis’ GL800 and GL900 combined solution boosts the performance of existing wiring to solve both challenges in a matter of hours. The GL800 product family bridges the gap between the farthest fibre point and the out of fibre reach buildings, instantly extending gigabit speeds over miles with cyber-safe encrypted, fibre-grade transmission, solving the first main challenge.
The GL900 product family then delivers instant gigabit speeds throughout industrial facilities, military barracks, apartments, offices, hotels, and hospitals, over wiring of copper or coax that already exist. An extension of PON optical connection arriving at the building, GL900 is a cost effective, green solution, consuming very little power, with hassle-free installation.
“Our new line of gigabit hybrid fibre-copper products is very unique in that it utilises existing wiring but is able to transmit multi-gig, fibre-grade connectivity over long distances, which provides tremendous cost and time savings for network operators,” says Tuvia Barlev, chairman and CEO of Actelis. “The flexibility of the solution allows for an almost unlimited number of applications, from rail networks to enabling high-speed internet for unserved and underserved communities.”
Actelis will be presenting these new solutions at the upcoming Broadband Communities Summit, May 1-4 at The Woodlands, TX. Attendees are encouraged to meet with Actelis representatives at booth #603 to learn more.
