Rye Telephone Company to install Optical Solutions' FiberPath 400 system in Colorado
Optical Solutions Inc. announced that its long-time customer, Rye Telephone Company of Colorado City, Colo., will deploy Optical Solutions' next-generation fiber-to-the-community system, FiberPath 400. Rye Telephone Company will deploy the new FiberPath 400 system to approximately 2,000 homes in Rye and Colorado City. The fiber-optic network will replace the telephone company's existing copper infrastructure in those areas.
Rye, an independent telephone company with 2,350 access lines across the Southeast region of Southern Colorado, uses earlier versions of Optical Solutions' FiberPath system in the Hatchet Ranch and Wigton subdivision.
The new, FiberPath 400 allows service providers to deliver up to 100 Mbps data speeds, IP streaming media, hundreds of channels of entertainment television and multiple telephone lines. FiberPath 400 transmits these services directly to the home, business and broader community via a passive optical network (PON), which allows the service provider maximum flexibility and cost-savings for construction and maintenance. In the tradition of FiberPath, the new FiberPath 400 is purely optical, with no commingling of copper or coax near the customer premise, and no special wiring required within the home or business.
