The sun, the sea, the hot sand... and MICROSENS Micro Switches
Key words: customer comfort and reduction of operating costs
In the tender run by CEGELEC POLYNESIE, companies Alcatel-Lucent and CIS Infoservices were selected to install a unique modern solution containing all communication applications. Up till now the whole infrastructure was based on old, local (island) technologies. CIS Infoservices proved to the customer the advantage of switching to the IP world with MICROSENS Micro Switches.
The specifications sheet required the installation of different services within the rooms, including high-speed internet, Wi-Fi, fixed and mobile telephony and two television sets (IPTV) with television offer upon demand.
Bearing in mind the constraints of distances, high salinity, humidity and congestion, the fiber optic solution was retained. This choice, along with the MICROSENS offer, allows taking advantage of several services.
Focus on IP-applications
It was quite easy to highlight the advantages of using fiber optic infrastructure almost all the way to the bungalow, both in terms of voice aspects and due to the expanse of the site, in order to reduce the lengths of multi-pair copper cables used until then.
As far as the Video On Demand (VOD) part was concerned, the customer was directed to the IP world for the very same reasons, in order to avoid having to deploy a network of coaxial cables dedicated to television distribution.
In case of the mobile telephony part, the message there was based on reduction in investments and standardisation of infrastructure in order to avoid deploying a DECT solution (again a dedicated network).
All these applications were then concentrated in the MICROSENS Micro Switch and thus 121 suites, including about a hundred on stilts and 7 villas, are equipped with our highly compact and robust switches. The management ensures QoS for IP-telephony, among other things. The PoE function allows the functionality of small terminals powering themselves.
A propos de MICROSENS
La transmission d'informations par des connexions à fibres optiques présente de nombreux avantages. MICROSENS GmbH & Co. KG l'a reconnu très tôt. L'entreprise, qui fait partie des pionniers, développe et produit des systèmes de communication et de transmission à haute performance en Allemagne depuis 1993. Adaptés individuellement aux exigences des différents domaines d'utilisation et intégrés dans des concepts globaux pour les différentes industries. Mais surtout, proche du client. Les défis techniques des projets des clients se répercutent directement sur le développement des produits. Il en résulte des solutions d'automatisation basées sur IP pour les bâtiments modernes, des concepts de réseau rentables pour les bureaux et les postes de travail, des solutions robustes et à sécurité intégrée pour les environnements industriels, des systèmes de transport optique pour les réseaux étendus d'avenir et la liaison efficace des sites et des centres de données.
