Prysmian announces the launch of innovative optic cable for FFTH (Fibre to The Home)

The full range of Prysmian's optic cable, fibre & system solutions will be presented at CommunicAsia 2007 in Singapore.

Prysmian Cables & Systems, a worldwide leading player in the cable industry, will be launching further additions to its growing Fibre-to-the-Home (FTTH) product range at CommunicAsia 2007 - Asia's major communications and IT exhibition and conference which will take place in Singapore from June 19th to 22nd.

Optical fibre deployment in the access network continues to gather pace in line with the rapid increase in global Broadband uptake and Asia continues to lead the way in terms of operational FTTH connections. Visitors to CommunicAsia will get a chance to see the latest advances in telecoms and IT technology from 1500 companies from almost 60 countries in a marketplace where both mobile and ultra high bandwidth fixed line technology are setting new standards in today's Broadband economy.

Prysmian will be demonstrating the full range of its passive FTTH portfolio including blown fibre, mini blown cable, pre-connectorised customer solutions and a full range of optical connectivity products. Additionally Prysmian will be exhibiting its latest addition to the portfolio - high rise building break-out cable - which provides a fast, economical and convenient method of getting fibre to the end user in multi level construction applications. All of these products are fully compatible with Prysmian's G657 compliant, bend insensitive fibre - CasaLight ^TM.

Director of Prysmian's global telecom cables & optical fibres business Mr Giovanni B Scotti, who will be present at the event, commented "The Asian market continues to set the pace in terms of global FTTH activity. Broadband will inevitably continue its growth and with the ever increasing level of available content we are convinced that providing fibre to the end user is the only realistic way of delivering the levels of service which the consumer will come to expect"
