[November 04, 2009] iSmart DSM L3 Wins Light Reading Top Pick 2009 Award Tweet Nov 04, 2009 (Close-Up Media via COMTEX) -- Light Reading, a publishing, events, and research company targeting communications service providers, has selected the iSmart Consortium's Dynamic Spectrum Management Level 3 (DSM L3) technology as the Light Reading Top Pick 2009 in the Telecom Software (EMEA) category. The award, according to Light Reading, recognizes products and services that best indicate where the communications industry is headed in the next 12 months. "This award is a reflection of the enthusiasm that operators expressed for DSM L3 when we demonstrated it for the first time at Broadband World Forum Europe," said Ido Shargil, chairman of the iSmart Consortium and head of system engineering at ECI Telecom. "ECI is confident that once this technology becomes an industry reality it will drive the high-speed broadband world for years to come." The iSmart Consortium's DSM L3 technology, in development by consortium partners ECI Telecom and Actelis Networks, can multiply the coverage area of VDSL2 equipment by a factor of up to 10. This will enable operators to cost-effectively provide the highest-speed VDSL2 broadband services, such as IPTV and telepresence, over existing copper access infrastructure.
