FTTH Communities Top 650

Fiber-to-the-home technology is available in 652 communities connecting 322,700 homes, according to research released at the FTTH Conference in Las Vegas. That�s triple the number of communities and more than double the number of homes reported in September 2004: 217 towns and 146,500 connected homes.

Those figures should only increase as Verizon Communications Inc. continues its FiOS buildouts. The report was released by the Fiber-to-the-Home Council, the Telecommunications Industry Association and Fiber Optic Communities of the United States.

Ultra-Wideband in Billions of New Devices

 Ultra-Wideband (UWB) is quietly becoming one of the most strategic short-range wireless technologies in the market, moving from niche deployments into the mainstream of smartphones, cars, and smart spaces. As the ecosystem matures and next-generation implementations arrive, UWB is shifting from nice-to-have to a foundational capability for secure access, sensing, and high-performance device-to-device connectivity. UWB Technology Market Development Unlike Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, NFC, or legacy IEEE 802.15.4 implementations, UWB combines three powerful attributes in a single radio: secure ranging, radar-like sensing, and low-latency, high-throughput short-range data. This allows networking and IT vendors to architect experiences that blend precise location, context awareness, and rich interaction in ways traditional connectivity stacks cannot easily match. According to the latest worldwide market study by ABI Research, UWB is expected to be one of the fastest-growing wireless connectivity...
