John Williamson Putting FTTH to the Test
12 David Wang 14 Matthew Peach
Welcome to the last issue of Optical Connections of 2018. The end of the year is often a time for reflection, however new developments in optical communications in 2018 means the industry is keenly looking forward to the coming 12 months as progress and innovation continue in a variety of technologies and markets. Progress certainly came this year in the form of FTTH roll-outs, particularly across Europe, reaching almost 90% of households in some countries. However, keeping that fibre up and running will be a challenge for operators who will require a completely new set of tools to maintain those networks, given the fragility of fibre when compared to copper. Veteran technology journalist John Williamson takes a look at the test and measurement equipment needed to keep the light on. At the other end of the network, Antony Savvas looks at the latest developments in silicon photonics and the expected wide-scale adoption of photonic integrated circuits. In a similar vein, Matthew Peach examines the latest developments in the all-important electro-optical interface as new products begin to reach the market.
