Passive Optical LAN (POL)

Floor Space Savings
• UMW eliminated 7 IDF closets in their 5 storied residence hall
Reduction in Non renewable materials
• Reduction of up to 8000 pounds of plastic and copper versus a Cat 6 install for building of 4000 Ethernet ports
Reduction in Power Distribution Network
• A Fortune 500 company saved about $450K on the Power distribution network (HVAC, backup etc) for a building project with 2000 Ethernet ports
Fire Load Savings
• Savings in Sprinkler Systems • Fire Load and ceiling space savings
Green Benefits
• Reduction air conditioning requirements • Reduction in power consumption • Floor space savings • Ceiling space and fire load savings
Secure and Reliable
• Ultra-secure • Fiber is harder to tap • No TEMPEST shielding • AES 128 bit encryption between the active components • Highly Reliable • Five 9s availability on all the components • Fiber has more tensile strength than the copper
