NETWORK PROVIDERS MOST ADVANCED, COST-EFFECTIVE FIBER HOME SOLUTIONS FROM A SINGLE VENDOR
18 January 2007 - Emerson Process Management

Emerson Network Power, a business of Emerson and the global leader in enabling Business-Critical Continuity, today introduced NetSpan FTTH Solutions to further support the transition from copper to fiber networks, extending its presence in the telecommunications market. Growing customer demand for network bandwidth and the industry trend toward providing triple play services, voice, video, data, over fiber networks to consumers are key drivers behind Emerson Network Power's new offerings.

Fiber to the home is the fastest-growing global broadband technology, with significant deployments underway in Asia, Europe, and North America. Emerson Network Power has been a leader by offering copper solutions and is leveraging its existing relationships and understanding of the telecommunications industry to provide customers with the most cost-effective outside plant and telecom cabinet solutions from any single provider. Prior to the launch of NetSpan FTTH Solutions, network providers were required to use multiple vendors for each deployment.

"Emerson Network Power's fiber offerings are unique in that they are compatible with the older existing technology and the new fiber network, which makes the inevitable transition from copper to fiber easy and cost-effective," said Ed Feeney, Emerson senior vice president. "For example, all fiber to the home products are designed to be used with the copper network, but can be transitioned to fiber without incurring additional infrastructure costs."

Emerson Network Power offers complete solutions that simplify the deployment of fiber to the home for network providers. The NetSpan FTTH Solutions portfolio allows customers to maximize their existing copper infrastructures while also planning for the future.

"The consumer and business appetite for broadband services is increasing from kilobytes and megabytes to gigabytes and terabytes and existing copper infrastructure simply cannot accommodate this need," Feeney said. "Our adaptive fiber solutions enable the telecommunications industry to move forward faster."
