Canoga Perkins Deploys FibreXpander in Government Security Agency; A Government Security Agency Quadrupled Its Fiber Optic Cable Plant Without Digging or Spending a Fortune.Business Editors/High-Tech Writers CHATSWORTH, Calif.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Sept. 23, 2002 Canoga Perkins, a leading supplier of fiber optic extension equipment and CWDM (Course WDM) An optical transmission method that is used for shorter distances than dense WDM (DWDM). Also known as "wide WDM," CWDM transmits fewer channels and uses wider spacing between the channels for distances up to 60 km. Wider spacing up to 25 nm, compared to 1. systems, knows how important homeland security Noun 1. Homeland Security - the federal department that administers all matters relating to homeland security Department of Homeland Security executive department - a federal department in the executive branch of the government of the United States is and is proud to be part of our government's defense effort. The Canoga Perkins team developed the FibreXpander to be easy to order, easy to set-up and install and easy to afford. The FibreXpander ships as a complete system, no assembly required. Just attach the included jumper cables and you can be up and running in a short time. "Running out of fiber can be a real issue with serious implications. You either need to lay more fiber, which can cost hundreds of thousands of dollars, or buy an extremely expensive and complicated DWDM (Dense WDM) The term given to wavelength division multiplexing (WDM) when significantly more channels were being added. Since WDM is increasingly more "dense" all the time, both terms are used synonymously. See WDM. DWDM - wavelength division multiplexing system. We have developed a new way to deal with this issue of fiber exhaustion in a simple cost effective manner," said Jack Buhn, President and CEO (1) (Chief Executive Officer) The highest individual in command of an organization. Typically the president of the company, the CEO reports to the Chairman of the Board. of Canoga Perkins. "This new system is simple enough for all types of network personnel to install and operate. It ships as a complete assembled system that just bolts in right out of the box and is up and running in a very short time. It is as close to plug and play as you can get." The FibreXpander comes with everything you need to expand one fiber optic cable Noun 1. fiber optic cable - a cable made of optical fibers that can transmit large amounts of information at the speed of light fibre optic cable transmission line, cable, line - a conductor for transmitting electrical or optical signals or electric power into four fiber optic cables. No exotic technology, no expensive cooled lasers and no physics degree required. The simple, low cost system bolts into your cabinet and gets connected to your fiber optic cable. It then splits the light in your fiber optic cable into four unique colors, much like a prism in the sun, so you get four channels where you had only one before. You can drive the fiber up to 80 kilometers with the FibreXpander's high power option so distance is no longer an issue. The FibreXpander is also reliable. It is 100% system tested and burned in for more than the industry standard timeframe before it is shipped to eliminate any infant mortality (hardware) infant mortality - It is common lore among hackers (and in the electronics industry at large) that the chances of sudden hardware failure drop off exponentially with a machine's time since first use (that is, until the relatively distant time at which enough mechanical issues. Most importantly Adv. 1. most importantly - above and beyond all other consideration; "above all, you must be independent" above all, most especially , it is NEBS Level 3 tested and certified to guard against the most hostile environments See: operational environment. . The FibreXpander is a system you can count on to perform. This is what homeland security demands. The four-channel FibreXpander system is now shipping.
