Canada Connects partners with KO to deliver a series of on-line presentations
This past week, Canada Connects worked with Critical Telcom, an innovative company in Ottawa to present "Driving Broadband to the Edge". The presentation by Nick Cadwgan, Head of Product Management for Critical Telecom addressed many of the issues involved in taking Fibre-To-The-Premise (FTTP) including staging these developments with various broadband delivery strategies including fibre-to-the-node (FTTN) and fibre-to-the-curb (FTTC). The need for this infrastructure becomes more and more evident as second generation Broadband applications become more available for the consumers.
The presentation was archived using the K-Net Breeze server and can be viewed at http://breeze.knet.ca/p13736530/ (if this is the first time you have used Breeze then you will need to click on yes to download the required plug-ins to be able to view the presentation). Critical Telecom has technologies available now that can extend DSL reach for thousands of Canadians that are still waiting for broadband services. Nick Cadwgan explains in detail all the issues now being faced by Canadian Telcos in getting DSL services into Canadian homes.
Two other excellent recorded sessions that we highly recommend that you watch when you have a chance are:
- CATA Vancouver Business Outlook Seminars

http://interface.audiovideoweb.com/lnk/avwebdswin2153/wsn2.wmv/play.asx - While Canada struggles trying to make DSL available to all Canadians, Asian countries are already jumping to Fibre To The Home .... This technology is available today ... in Canada for costs supportable by what Canadians are already paying for Cable TV, Telephone Services and Internet Access. This 30 minute video explains all of the issues and opportunities.
