I encourage you to make            the rounds and see what else is new. <\/p>\n<p class=\"MsoBodyText\"><a href=\"javascript:\" onclick=\"MM_openBrWindow('http:\/\/www.afc.com','','')\">AFC<\/a>:            Evidence that video is a requirement for access suppliers&#8217; new products,            AFC will be demonstrating its solution for delivering video over its            access product line. Since June, Milton, Kansas-based Twin Valley Telephone            (TVT) has been using this platform to deliver video, telephone and high-speed            Internet in a bundled package that they call 1Link\u2122. AFC also            will be showing their Fiber to the Premise product, which converts their            existing AccessMax\u2122 into a PON (Passive Optical Network) platform.          <\/p>\n<p class=\"MsoBodyText\"> <a href=\"javascript:\" onclick=\"MM_openBrWindow('http:\/\/www.etisoftware.com','','')\">ETI<\/a>:            Gluing together the disparate hardware pieces together with telcos\u2019            various operational support and billing systems is the specialty of            ETI Software. With over a decade of experience, ETI provides the back-office            integration software that allows Hybrid Fiber Coax, xDSL and Fiber to            the Premise systems to integrate seamlessly with legacy billing systems,            letting even the smallest of telcos present bundled services on the            same bill. At Telecom &#8217;03, they will be showing off their latest product            offering that is allowing the provisioning of triple play services to            thousands of new fiber to the premise passings. <\/p>\n<p class=\"MsoBodyText\"> <a href=\"javascript:\" onclick=\"MM_openBrWindow('http:\/\/www.minervanetworks.com','','')\">Minerva            Networks<\/a>: Visitors to Minerva Networks will get a chance to win            a 27\u201d RCA\/Thomson television, courtesy of Thomson.

Ian Tapp, Vice President            of Market Development for NDS, will be discussing the importance of            content protection. Partially owned by News Corporation, the global            media and entertainment company, NDS has worked for years with satellite            television providers and studios to ensure the protection of their content.            They are generously sponsoring the drink reception at the Fall conference.            The fact that they have such a significant presence at this show is            news, as it means they believe the telco video market segment is real.<\/p>\n<p class=\"MsoBodyText\"\/>          <a href=\"javascript:\" onclick=\"MM_openBrWindow('http:\/\/www.paradyne.com','','')\">Paradyne:<\/a>          Be sure to check out the 25 television, &#8220;video wall&#8221; at the          Paradyne booth.
