AFC Announces Upcoming Schedule of Events at FTTH Council Expo in
Orlando PETALUMA, Calif., Sept. 29 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- AFC(R)
(NASDAQ:AFCI), The Acronym for Access(SM), today announced its
participation in the following upcoming events at the
Fiber-to-the-Home Council Conference and Expo. The three-day event
takes place October 4-6 at the Caribe Royale Resort and Convention
Center in Orlando, Fla. In addition to the events listed below, AFC
will be showcasing its FiberDirect(SM) solution, a carrier's most
direct path to Fiber-to-the-Premises, at Booth #1008 in the exhibit
area. Headlining AFC's participation is a presentation by Mark
Abrams, AFC's senior director of product line management for FTTP.
Abrams will explore existing vs. greenfield construction in the
access network and the advantages of FTTP in each setting. Abrams
will also provide a comprehensive list of deep fiber access
benefits and differentiators, including why deployment of fiber and
network intelligence out to a subscriber's premises is the better
choice for carriers looking to increase revenue streams by
facilitating a competitive service bundle. Abrams' remarks mirror
the point of view provided in his paper titled "Fiber vs. Copper,"
which is being published in conjunction with the conference by the
FTTH Council. Also published, as part of the FTTH Council expo, is
a paper titled "Cost-Effective Implementation of FTTH," authored by
Sean Blakley, AFC's manager of product line management for FTTP.
Building on the economic premise of Abrams' presentation and paper,
Blakley discusses two key network movements already underway in the
access space: fiberization and packetization. Blakley's paper
discusses the major considerations and decision-making processes
associated with architecting a fiber-based, intelligent access
environment central to delivering the competitive triple play of
voice, video and high-speed data services. Monday, October 4,
