Pronounced “copper at OCX,” this patent pending digital transmission technology allows data to be transmitted
across existing telephone and Local Area Network cabling, either twisted copper pairs or coaxial cable, at
unprecedented speeds and distances.
Using a proprietary multi-channel modulation technique, coined Group Frequency Modulation (GFM),
Cu@OCx addresses the problems that limit effective bandwidth and distance capability of other high-speed
transmission technologies, such as Discrete Multitone (DMT) or Single Carrier Modulation (SCM). GFM
combines transmission characteristics of telephone cable with technology advancements from other fields
such as signal processing and information theory. The result is a more robustly transmitted signal and a
unique method for recovering data from received signals that are severely attenuated.
In February 2001, NV Technology reached an important proof-of-concept milestone. NetworkCare
Professional Services, a division of Lucent Technologies, verified Cu@OCx’s ability to transfer raw data at a
rate of 52 Mbps over 9,000 feet. In contrast, the most renowned and anticipated residential broadband
technology today, VDSL, is limited to 52 Mbps at 1,000 feet, or 26 Mbps at 3,500 feet. In its initial
demonstrations Cu@OCx has shown the ability to provide access up to 133 times faster than typical DSL
service, and up to a 900% distance improvement over competing technologies in the residential marketplace.
As importantly, because Cu@OCx runs over existing copper lines (the DSL Forum estimates 750 million
copper lines worldwide), telecommunications providers are spared the expense of laying costly new fiber
optic lines in every region it wishes to extend coverage and can increase the offering of convergent services
quickly and cost-effectively.
Potential Markets
Multiple telephony market sectors could successfully adopt and benefit from Cu@OCx, including the WAN,
MTU, LAN and xDSL markets – and ultimately, consumers. NV Technology is developing core broadband
technology and IC-based (silicon) solutions that address specific areas of need within three primary high-speed
communications markets:
• Residential
• Business class
• LAN – Local Area Network
NV Technology is currently exploring potential relationships with leading ILECs, CLECs, RBOCs, DLECs, IC
manufacturers, and telecom equipment manufacturers to determine the most strategic and profitable options
for the growth of the company.
