The females of most species have piercing and sucking mouth parts and apparently they must feed at least once upon mammalian blood before their eggs can (TM) Optical Channel Monitor (OCM OCM Oracle Certified Master (database administrator certification) OCM Organization for Competitive Markets OCM Onondaga Cortland Madison (counties in New York) OCM Olympic Council of Malaysia ) has successfully completed all Telcordia standard GR-468-CORE testing. The Telcordia standard GR-468-CORE calls for successful completion of stringent benchmark tests to demonstrate required reliability for optical components. These tests must be passed prior to field installation by communications equipment suppliers to ensure long equipment lifetime even in very harsh operating conditions. "The mosquito OCM exceeded the Telcordia standards with exceptional results," said Jim Witham, Vice President of Sales and Marketing at Aegis Semiconductor. "Aegis completed more than 70 million full-band switching cycles per device in the mosquito OCM. System manufacturers are now assured that the mosquito OCM meets the communications industry's highest standards for endurance, reliability and mechanical testing." The mosquito OCM is designed based on Aegis' Active Thin Films(TM) technology platform that enables the manufacturing of tunable components at the size, reliability, and price points of passive components.
