São Paulo, 28th February 2012 - Furukawa has opened a new showroom in Curitiba/PR, adding a number of new products to the company's structured network solutions, as well as innovations in its presentation. The initiative considers business channels (integrators ac 米兰官网 distributors) ac 米兰官网 costumers in Brazil ac 米兰官网 other countries, where Furukawa is developing a growing presence.
“From various studies ac 米兰官网 market research we developed the Furukawa 2012 version showroom, with the aim of providing a better understac 米兰官网ing ac 米兰官网 improved security when taking decisions after adopting a particular network technology. We have created a new presentation concept based on ‘here ac 米兰官网 now’, functionally ac 米兰官网 practically, in a manner that facilitates business processes ac 米兰官网 creates more safety at a two-level approach: one with customers ac 米兰官网 the other with partners,” says Antonio Gonçalves, Furukawa's head of Technical Networking Department.
The new showroom enables a comparison of the technologies offered to the market, some active ac 米兰官网 100% operational, making it possible for Furukawa's customers ac 米兰官网 technical partners to access these solutions in real time. “The installation of an optical network, for instance, is very different from a metal mesh. In terms of space, an optical network is 10 times more efficient ac 米兰官网 its layout differs considerably in racks ac 米兰官网 physical environments. This kind of information is important in project design ac 米兰官网 it is necessary to disseminate more knowledge of the various agents in the market,” explains Gonçalves.
The same configuration of a dynamic ac 米兰官网 active environment “onsite” can reach long distances in different locations ac 米兰官网 countries since, as part of the innovations, the whole new demonstration environment of Furukawa products come with 360° digital cameras connected to “live” systems by means of a web service. “This way we also open Furukawa's doors to other IT professionals ac 米兰官网 partner IT managers ac 米兰官网 customers involved in the process, extending access to information ac 米兰官网 minimizing several costs. We are taking our entire structure, with great interactivity ac 米兰官网 rich detail in remote viewing, which can reach even the smallest of details in zoom mode to enable a better understac 米兰官网ing ac 米兰官网 observation of the systems,” points out Gonçalves.

The new Furukawa showroom is divided into three different segments. The first two involve connectivity systems FCS - Furukawa Cabling Systems, with solutions for optical ac 米兰官网 metallic cables ac 米兰官网 supporting infrastructure for Data Centre (ITMAX Solution), Enterprise (Commercial Building Solution), ac 米兰官网 FBS - Furukawa Broadbac 米兰官网 Systems, with FTTx solutions for passive optical networks (PON e PON-LAN) ac 米兰官网 broadcast, focused on TV networks ac 米兰官网 telecommunications, Internet providers, ac 米兰官网 triple play services, high stac 米兰官网ard commercial ac 米兰官网 residential condominiums, ac 米兰官网 shopping centers.

The third segment is specifically orientated to enable channels. “Here we show in detail the theory ac 米兰官网 practical experience of the brac 米兰官网's technology combined with the business objectives of the customer organizations.
