Thailand's premier world-class yachting hub Royal Phuket Marina (RPM) was selected by TOT (Telephone Organization of Thailand) as the venue for unveiling its futuristic fiber-optic cable solution Fiber-2-U.
The prestigious showcase on 20 December celebrated the official introduction of Fiber-2-U in Phuket and was attended by a host of both business and government dignitaries including TOT President, Khun Varut Suvakorn.
TOT hosted an all day event including a press conference and demonstrations of its next generation power supply for high-tech appliances at RPM's newly build Luxury Waterfront Villas.
"Royal Phuket Marina was chosen to host the event because it is currently the only property development on the island with fiber optic capabilities to all condo’s and residences" said Andrew Jordan, Director of Operations.
To celebrate the inauguration of the cutting edge technology, a party was held in the marina's Town Square that evening with high profile attendees including Mr Gulu Lalvani, Chairman of RPM, Khun Varut Suvakorn, President of TOT Public Company Limited and Khun Smith Palawatvichai, Deputy Governor of Phuket.
Fiber-optic technology is increasingly adopted for telecommunications, local area networks, CCTV security, Intelligent Transportation Systems (ITS) and CATV (cable). It is only now beginning to be adapted to households and a growing number of residential fiber-optic applications are being introduced as demand increases for more bandwidth.
High-speed bandwidth allows a multitude of live action HDTV cable channels, ultra high-speed internet access, live full-motion video telephones and movie theatre quality home entertainment centers to share a single optical conductor routed from room to room.
