Environmentally Friendly 400 Mbps Rural & Urban Telco Broadband
Low Telco Carbon Footprint, High Bandwidth, High Investment Returns
Uses Bonded DSL Rings™ (BDR) from Genesis Technical Systems Corp (GTS)
For Immediate Release
June 17, 2008
Telco operators today want to be environmentally responsible Telcos. To do so they need to reduce their carbon
footprint and their power consumption while delivering cable competitive bandwidth.
With new Bonded DSL Rings™ (BDR) Rural and Urban Telco customers can get up to 400 Mbps bandwidth using
a Telco’s existing copper telephone lines. Some of the environmental friendly benefits of Bonded DSL Rings™
(BDR) are:
- Telcos can get up to 400 Mbps Bandwidth to Rural and Urban customers without increasing their Carbon
Footprint by using Bonded DSL Rings™
- BDR re-uses a Telco’s existing copper telephone line thus saving the environmental costs associated with
making and installing fiber
- Until BDR higher bandwidth required higher power consumption.
- Utility customers can benefit from time of day billing when utilities use BDR enabled continuous automated
meter reading (AMR). AMR allows consumers and utilities to manage their resource more efficiently by
creating incentives for customers to use off peak power, water and natural gas thus helping to reduce peak
period demand and associated costs.
Media Availability – Genesis Technical Systems Corp’s CEO Garry Kelman and President Stephen P. Cooke, the
inventor of BDR, of Calgary are holding a Media availability session at 2 pm on June 17, 2008 in the Media Centre
at the 2008 Canadian Telecom Summit in the Toronto Congress Centre. Garry and Steve will be available to
answer questions about BDR and to discuss the environmental and operational benefits of Telcos using BDR to
bring HIGH bandwidth to Rural and Urban Telco customers.
Bonded DSL Rings from GTS combines DSL and Resilient Packet Rings (RPR) to provide greater bandwidth and
higher quality services to Telco customers. “It utilizes two very familiar and successful technologies and is
completely pay-as-you-go, eliminating the huge early investment required by fiber-to-the-premises networks,” “It
reuses the existing wireline network infrastructure to provide a 400 Mbps Resilient Packet Ring.” stated James
Heath, Director of Broadband Research at Dittberner Associates.
“GTS’s BDR solution provides Quality of Service (QoS) which creates a new paradigm in telecom service delivery
in such an economical way that it can be applied throughout a Telco's entire rural and urban network,” stated
Stephen Cooke, inventor of BDR.
BDR is more environmentally friendly and gives a better ROI than fiber. Fiber frequently requires digging up
streets in the neighborhood where it is being deployed which is incredibly messy and capital expensive in urban
areas and not at all economically feasible in rural areas. BDR gives Telcos a competitive advantage in Rural and
Urban broadband markets. It delivers speeds faster than cable (see graph on following page). Also, BDR helps
Telcos achieve convergence of wired and wireless telephony.
With BDR Telcos can provide customers high quality premium services that exceed what cable offers. This will
enhance the Telco customer’s experience and also allow Telcos to charge for premium services. Some of the
premium services Telcos can offer with BDR include HDTV over DSL (IPTV), video phone calls, remote home
security monitoring with video, 3D TV, medical monitoring, home network management and continuous automated
meter reading as well as higher bandwidth broadband Internet access for faster uploads and downloads and a
host of other applications.
A proof of concept of BDR was demonstrated successfully at the Broadband World Forum in Berlin, Germany in
October 2007 and at the MINT Lab at the U of A, in Edmonton, Alberta in November 2007 in conjunction with TR
Labs Building the Next Generation Internet Network Workshop.
