Founded in September 2000 by a dynamic team of high-powered and experienced optical network specialists, FlexLight's suite of optical access products leverages leading-edge technology to deliver a solution that conquers last-mile bandwidth bottlenecks and optimizes service flexibility.
FlexLight's solution is based on the new ITU standard, G.984.1-4, for Gigabit PON (GPON) Networks. GPON has been defined within the FSAN organization which is comprised of all the major Telecommunications providers, and is based on their needs for Ethernet and voice traffic in both today's and tomorrow's networks.
FlexLight's funding of almost $30 million comes from Vesbridge Partners, Accel Partners, Applied Materials Ventures, Coral Ventures and Concord Ventures.
The company is headquartered in Atlanta, GA, in the United States, and has its principal R&D facility outside Tel Aviv, Israel. FlexLight has sales offices in China, England and the US.
FlexLight sold its GPON equipment to carriers and service providers in 3 continents and has contracts trials with major carriers around the world. Check back to this www site for new press information on customer wins.
Optimate is FlexLight`s economical Gigabit PON (GPON) solution, which readily addresses the service providers` need for economical and reliable voice, data and video access over a single fiber access facility. It offers the benefits of high-speed data over PON, while guaranteeing the E1/T1 Quality-of-Service voice customers expect from TDM services and private line tariffs.
FlexLight`s solution delivers E1/T1, POTS, Ethernet (10/100/1000 Mbps) and Video services to each tenant in a building, and grooms these services back to the central office for hand-off on an STM1/OC3, E1 and Gigabit Ethernet (GbE) to the METRO network.
Our revolutionary high bit rate of 2.488 Gbit/s downstream and 1.244 Gbit/s upstream covering a long reach network diameter of up to 37 Km, is unprecedented in the industry today. Optimate supports full redundancy on the PON network, allowing the broadband access network to immediately recover from fiber cuts or other outages in the fiber plant. This SDH/SONET-like recovery feature is crucial to today's service providers, and is another unique advantage of FlexLight's solution
