PMC-Sierra Inc. announced the first pluggable GPON optical network terminal (ONT) reference design that can connect any customer premises equipment (CPE) equipped with a standard small form-factor pluggable (SFP) port to a high-speed passive optical network (PON), according to a company spokesperson.

The low-power, plug-and-play ONT enables carriers and system vendors to upgrade existing service-oriented home and small/medium business equipment, including gateways, routers, and integrated access devices, to full GPON functionality without hardware or software redesign. It eliminates the need for carriers and service providers to deploy new CPE when introducing advanced fiber-based services.

The pluggable ONT, based on PMC-Sierra’s GPON SoC for mini-ONT applications, is powered by standard interfaces in the host device and does not require a dedicated power supply.

“FTTH networks have passed the initial adoption stage and service providers are looking for innovative ways to connect existing customers and equipment to passive optical networks for advanced services at faster speeds. In addition, multiple regulators require demarcation between CPE and carrier-provided PON ONTs,” says Raphael Sankar,
vice president and co-general manager of PMC-Sierra’s FTTH Division.

The PAS65823A-KIT pluggable ONT integrates an fiber optical transmitter, a host interface, and a OMCI stack that is interoperable with all major OLT systems on the market. It can be connected to any SFP receptacle and does not require any software or hardware modifications to the host system.

The PAS65823A-KIT pluggable GPON ONT reference design is available now.

Live remote production often has to overcome a number of logistical challenges, not the least of which are the distance between transmit/receive points and inclement weather—heavy rain in particular. That’s why many production companies and television stations doing local production in the U.S. have come to rely on fiber to move signals around and get the job done. Set up (and strike) is easy and because of fiber technology’s remarkable immunity to water, there’s no risk of electrical shock or fire, more communications data can be transmitted, and a reliable signal is ensured every time out.

As anyone who’s used it can attest, the same can’t be said for copper coaxial cable. 

Telecast Fiber Systems products like the Ethernet Viper, CopperHead interfaced with a camera, and a Rattler have helped a variety of projects make it through the rain. And the best part is that they did it very cost-effectively, in terms of the price of the equipment as well as the savings in manpower and time afforded by fiber-optic technology.

During a popular (and soggy) golf tournament in Rhode Island, local CBS affiliate WPRI-TV in Providence, R.I. had to endure three solid days of rain. Yet, the show had to go on, so the crew set up an announce position next to the course to help broadcast two reporters, two guests, and a jib camera for beauty shots. They established a secure connect between the booth and a production trailer with a single 500-foot run of TAC-4 cable.

The onsite system included a Telecast Ethernet Viper that moved HD program videos, return video, six program audio channels, two IFB channels, and two Clear-Com intercom channels. One of three Sony PMW-EX3 camcorders was fed through a Telecast Viper Mussel Shell with the second set camera connected through the two spare Mussel Shell fibers to a custom Telecast CopperHead that had been equipped to interface with it. The CopperHead provided full camera signal interface, remote control functions, operator intercom, and tally. The third Sony PMW-EX3 jib camcorder was fed back to the production trailer using a Telecast Rattler system.

Fewer cable runs and a lot less bulk (weight) meant getting out of the rain quicker. That’s the advantages of fiber.

Relocating can be hugely rewarding, but it can also be distressing. It comes down to trusting your belongings, from your electronics and home appliances to your garments and memories, to unknown individuals. Fortunately, by learning a handful of warning indications involving “rogue” moving companies, or moving services who will take your possessions or money, you can avoid being taken for what you are worth. Understand the red flags for discovering rogue moving companies and protect you and your family for your coming relocation.

Disreputable moving firms provide this low estimate so they are able get your items on their truck. When they have your items, they could either hold them hostage unless you pay more or never deliver them at all. Once this happens, it’s too late and you’ll be forced to pay to get your things back, often much more than was estimated. The Internet makes it easy to locate a professional moving and storage company (i.e. type ‘Vista movers‘ in your favorite search engine). When you have narrowed your decision down to a couple of options, make sure that none of the following applies to them:

* The moving company does not want to perform an in-home estimate
* The moving company requests cash or a large deposit in advance
* The moving firm has only a web site but no physical address.
* The moving service does not have a name or branded truck.
* You are not furnished with a copy of “Your Rights and Responsibilities When You Move”
* The mover does not offer extra insurance(odds are you are not likely covered)

When it comes down to it, go with your gut. If you go to the mover’s premises and it is rundown or vacant looking, if your move cost seems too good to be true or if at any point you feel like something is out of sorts, they likely are. Nothing will be more crucial to your move than working with an honest, professional company.

Telecast Fiber Systems has become a founding sponsor of the “3D Biz Report,” a 5-minute audio podcast series sponsored by the Sports Video Group, that focuses on what’s happening (and what’s not) in the emerging area of 3D production and broadcasting. As crews working on 3D projects will tell you, Telecast products have become invaluable for 3D production of all types. That includes live sports.

Telecast’s new Copperhead 3400 is one of the products featured on 3D Biz Report for the week of October 25th. Winner of the TVB Europe Editors’ Choice Award at the IBC Show in Amsterdam this past September, the Copperhead 3400 puts all of the signals needed for 3D or Dual-Link production onto a single, lightweight yet robust cable.

 
The new transceiver, the latest in Telecasts’ expanding line of Copperhead products, mounts to any two-camera 3D Beam Splitter or Side-by-Side rig, creating an easy, flexible link from the camera to a truck, control room or flypack.  The benefits are significant, eliminating the problems of copper on any studio or remote production.

When the Pittsburgh Steelers meet the Green Bay Packers for this Sunday’s Super Bowl XLV in Dallas, Telecast Fiber systems will be doing its part—or at least our technology will—to create excitement inside the massive Cowboys Stadium in Arlington, Texas for fans in attendance.

When the stadium was built last year, we worked with system integrators Wrightson, Johnson, Haddon & Williams, (WJHW, in Dallas and San Antonio) to develop several rolling camera carts, complete with our Adder 2, POV Links, Rattlers, TeleThon fiber signal distribution products to support four Sony HDC-1500 HD video cameras. The Telecast technology is all housed in a compact 5 RU case built into the carts.

The carts make it possible to send four HD video signals (each way), 16 audio signals, eight channels of intercom, plus the ability to remotely control four robotic cameras. They are connected to the in-stadium control room via two strands of fiber cable, where there’s another 5 RU rack with all of our equipment. The HD cameras and microphones are plugged into the Telecast Fiber systems case and away they go.

These highly portable (and innovative) carts are wheeled around and used at various locations around the stadium to spotlight fans and other special activities happening as the game is going on. The images are often displayed on the venue’s infamous 600-tin, 160 feet long (or the length of four city busses parked end to end) x 72 feet wide 1080p HD LED screen, made by Mitsubishi. To top that off, two (“tiny by comparison”) 29 x 51 feet screens are attached to each end. Delivering the signals over fiber retains the image quality, which is a good thing since the screens are so big.

Each cart includes two Adder2 devices (one on each end) to move intercom signals around, two TeleThon 1 RU systems to handle 4 HD-SDI in/out and 4 CWDM fiber links for the HD camera signals and other data; four POV Links to move (in both directions) video, genlock, tri-level sync, RS485/422 data and GPI signals for accurate and fast remote camera control; four Rattlers that convert extra HD-SDI signals to light (to be sent over fiber) and back when required. [The Adder2 and TeleThon can each run on their own two separate strands or the Adder2 can be run through the TeleThon using either one of the TeleThon’s bi-directional fiber paths or one of the TeleThon’s bi-directional copper paths.]

Remember, with Telecast Fiber Systems products you get lots of signal distribution functionality and more distance than coax over a single fiber-optic cable. That’s a winning formula, no matter what team you’re rooting for.

Would a folded piece of 2 in by 1 in aluminum foil tucked in a place yet to be decided (on person, probably wallet?) pass through airport security provided it's contents were a nonissue?
And if not, how about in carry on or checked in luggage?

Those little wipes thingies have foil around it, and my friend got searched because he rang the metal detector twice. Didn't know what had set it off, at first. so, I don't even bother. I would just put it in your carry-on bag. Honestly, whatever it is, if the contents are not the issue, they won't make it an issue. if you think it's strange, people have brought stranger things I am sure, so don't worry about it.

Those aluminium foils will not be detected by metal detectors. However, it is better you put them on your checked in baggage instead of carrying on your hand baggage. but why are you asking this? are you going to use this for any terrorist attacks?

Some of the new airports can just "see" the tin foil and let you go through. I don't think metal detectors would pick up on tin foil though.

The dominating performance of San Francisco Giants starting pitcher Tim Lincecum in wrapping up the 2010 Major League Baseball World Series on Monday night was one of the best by a pitcher ever. And fans at home saw all 10 of his strikeouts in ultra slow motion, thanks to the X-MO camera coupled with the newest version of our Copperhead transceiver.

Inertia Unlimited, a veteran production company in Jacksonville, Vermont that works with Fox Sports, has devised a new way to use the Copperhead 3400 fiber optic video transceiver —which was originally designed for 3-D production because it pairs two 1.5 Gbps-compatible Copperheads together—by mounting it on a specially modified Phantom HD high-speed camera, known as the X-MO slow-motion system.

When used in tandem with the Copperhead 3400, the X-MO worked so well—converting baseband video signals to light in order to send the signals over 500 feet—that Inertia Unlimited president Jeff Silverman said he’s including it in all of his specialty camera systems going forward.

The X-MO system consists of a modified Vision Research Phantom HD high-speed camera with a Telecast Copperhead 3400 transceiver mounted on the back.

“The slow-motion system that we use is capable of much higher frame rates than any other traditional slomo camera system,” Silverman said. “The system we used for the World Series was capable of running at 5,600 fps, so the quality is so much better. And because it worked so flawlessly, Telecast’s technology will be a staple of all of the systems we provide in the future.”

The X-MO camera was located in a small compartment shooting over the center field wall and pointing directly at home plate (called the “tight center” angle) in both AT&T Park, in San Francisco—home of the new World Champion San Francisco Giants, and inside Rangers Stadium in Arlington, Texas. The unique point of view showed the ball slowly coming from the pitcher’s hand and into the catcher’s glove, allowing fans to see where the pitch landed. The effect was controlled with EVS SloMo playback controllers on board an NCP Productions HD truck in San Francisco and on board the Game Creek Video “Dynasty” truck on site in Texas. [These and other production companies provided feeds for Fox Sports domestic, an international feed for European broadcasters as well as a separate feed for Japanese audiences.]

Silverman said the Copperhead is ideal because it reduces the amount of cabling required while providing the extra bandwidth needed to transmit two simultaneously 3 Gbps streams and a third 1.5 Gbps stream directly out of the extremely high-speed camera. This massive amount of data was stored in solid-state memory inside the camera and then sent back to the truck for playback via Ethernet connectivity. Providing the slow-motion feed and a regular (60 fps) HD feed back to the production trucks on site (where it was remotely controlled along with 30 other HD cameras) was critical to the live coverage and served as a great addition to the live HD broadcast for viewers.

During the five games of this year’s World Series the X-MO system was used to shoot a live 720p HD stream, in addition to simultaneously recording two streams at 300 fps.

Here I am on site in San Francisco with a Copperhead 3400 on the X-MO system during 2010 World Series.

The Copperhead 3400 has proven to be perfect for high-speed acquisition (using a camera originally designed for manufacturing applications) during live events. Leveraging the Vision Research camera, the resulting scenes are captured at speeds from 30 – 5.600 fps and then played back at 60 fps to create stunning super slow motion effects for enhanced viewer analysis.

“We asked Telecast for a solution that would give us the data throughput we needed and the Copperhead 3400 is exactly what we were looking for,” Silverman said. “Telecast really came through for us.”

Inertia Unlimited also used its X-MOS system during the American League Championship Series, complete with a Telecast Fiber Systems Copperhead 3400 transceiver.
