Fiber optic lines offer many advantages, including high bandwidth to support today’s most advanced applications. But fiber lines can be tampered with to steal sensitive information or deny service to users. Without an optical intrusion detection system, your IT professionals may not discover how your organization’s communications are being tapped or disrupted. INTERCEPTOR, an […]

One way to discourage unauthorized access to a building or campus is to deploy an IP video camera surveillance network. But today’s cable networks are often required to support full-featured 4K HD cameras over an extended range, which in turn, drives up equipment and installation costs. NET100 partner Tellabs offers a better way to […]
