Fiber to the home(FTTH) is a fiber optic communication delivery form where the fiber extends from a central office to the boundary of a home living space or business office.

Record number: 8, Textual support number: 1 CONT

Free-Space Optics(also known as FSO, Wireless Optics or Optical Wireless) is an optical data, voice and video transmission system. Like fiber optic cable, wireless optics communication systems use laser light to transmit a digital signal between two transceivers. However, unlike fiber, the laser like is transtmited through the air(free-space) instead of through a glass strand. In order for the digital signal to be transmitted and received, there must be clear line of site between each wireless optics unit. In other words, there should be no obstructions such as trees or buildings between the transceiver units.  1, record 8, English, - free%2Dspace%20optics

Record number: 8, Textual support number: 2 CONT

The technology is useful where the physical connection of the transmit and receive locations is difficult, for example in cities where the laying of fibre optic cables is expensive. Free Space Optics is also used to communicate between space-craft, since outside of the atmosphere there is little to distort the signal. The optical links usually use infrared laser light, although low-data-rate communication over short distances is possible using LEDs [Light Emitting Diode]. IrDA [Infrared Data Association] is a very simple form of free-space optical communications. Distances up to the order of 10 km are possible, but the distance and data rate of connection is highly dependent on atmospheric conditions.  7, record 8, English, - free%2Dspace%20optics

The Canadian Press was created by newspaper publishers in 1917 to facilitate the exchange of news across a vast and sparsely populated country. During the First World War when publishers were desperate to bring news of Canadian troops in Europe to their readers, The Canadian Press began generating its own news copy and its war coverage transformed it from a distributor of information to Canada's national news reporting agency. Today, The Canadian Press is a dynamic, agile, bilingual news agency, driven by leading-edge technology and the ability to serve multimedia news to multiple platforms. It provides real-time text, photos, audio, graphics, video and online services to newspapers, broadcasters, publishers, websites, wireless carriers, cable companies, government and corporate clients.  1, record 9, English, - The%20Canadian%20Press

Aujourd'hui, La Presse Canadienne est une agence de presse dynamique, souple et bilingue, qui, grâce à une technologie de pointe, offre un contenu multimédia sur de multiples plateformes.

Before competition, all these technologies used to operate completely on their own, each supplying the consumer with a distinct service. The phone company brought you phone service, a cable company brought you television, and you got your computer or digital phone from others. Digital technology is changing all this, making it possible for anything -- a voice over a phone line, a TV picture and accompanying sound, data from your computer -- to be reduced to digital "bits" and send over any kind of access line. This means that some day, the phone will ring and you will answer by talking to your computer screen, which will also be the place you can watch a movie or the news.  1, record 10, English, - convergence
