Tradition Properties Inc., developers of the Village at Tradition located north of Biloxi, MS, selected Zoomy to create a GPON-based (search GPON) FTTH network to deliver voice, video, and data services.

According to Zoomy, its Open Access System (OASYS) high-performance fiber network delivers all communications services to the community over a single fiber. The network is designed, built, and operated by Zoomy Communications.

"The Village at Tradition is a world-class development, offering the latest in amenities to our residents," reports Gerald Blessey, president of Tradition Properties Inc. "We chose Zoomy Communications to supply the technology infrastructure because they are the leaders in this new area and their open-access model gives our homeowners access to world class voice, data and video services."

Zoomy says its OASYS network offers homeowners high-speed Internet speeds that will enable movie and music downloads, fully interactive distance learning, full-motion videoconferencing, uploading and downloading of immense graphics files, video gaming, telemedicine applications, video-on-demand, business to business connections, telecommuting, and numerous school, local community, and neighborhood applications. Zoomy also will provide alarm monitoring, security systems, and a full-suite of technology services to the community of Tradition.

"Progressive developers like Tradition Properties Inc. recognize that building homes with an eye toward the future makes good business sense," notes Diane Kruse, CEO and founder of Zoomy Communications. "FTTH technology brings the promise of future technology into today's new homes. We're proud of our position as the leader in designing, building, and running FTTH networks for developments like the Village at Tradition."
