Reaching Into The Home Network
September 7, 2012
Once upon a time, edge-of-net- work devices – also known as telephones – belonged to tele- phone companies, and life was simple. In 1968, the FCC opened up telephone networks to user-owned devices, paving the way for a new era of faxes, modems, answering machines and high-tech phones. Life was still simple, at least for phone companies, because subscribers were responsible for their own devices.

The Ethernet Law in Action: Automotive Industry Turns on to Ethernet
August 27, 2012
TMCNet readers are most likely familiar with Metcalfe’s Law: the value of a network increases with the number of people connected to that network – or Moore’s Law, which addresses the exponentially growing power of computer processing. I’ve also observed another phenomenon that may deserve its own moniker. Let’s call it the Ethernet Law.

CommsDesign Week in Review
August 27, 2012
Calix is buying FTTH from Ericsson We don’t know the amount of cash (or stock) changing hands in this deal, but Ericsson’s FTTH optical product line will now belong to Calix and Calix’s access equipment portfolio will be resold by Ericsson. Calix gets the global reseller channel; Ericsson puts more emphasis on 4G IP and mobile broadband. Sounds cozy. The deal should close in Q4 2012.
