Solution Name

Next Generation Growable Optical Networks

Solution Description

By the inspiration of Prof. Charles Kao (Father-of-Fiber Optics), a team of Hong Kong researchers invented Growable Optical Networks in early 2000. Trinity Photonics was established by that team on 2007 with HQ and R&D based in Hong Kong Science Park.

Trinity provides one stop solutions from Design, Manufacturing, Installation and Management based on the patent for a new generation of Growable Optical Network i.e. bandwidth and network nodes can “grow (be increased)” anytime. Our solution is an unique solution for deploying high speed optical infrastructure for well developed Smart Cities. All new technologies like 5G mobile and Realtime communication can be plugged and played on top of the infrastructure.

We are thankful for the supports from teachers and students for this Hong Kong Invention. Up to now, we build more than 50 growable optical networks (all with fiber-to-classroom) for schools which serving over 40,000 teachers and students 7x24 concurrently. Each of these schools can enjoy E-learning, WiFi, HD or 4k video broadcast, VR/AR/AI/IoT, STEAM activities, VDI and Moodle for whole school freely. Fulfils the dream of smart city is our goal.

Use Case

To cater for the fast growing demands of bandwidth and users for 5G mobile, VR/AR/IoT/Ai and 4k video broadcast, a stable and high performance network infrastructure is required. The optical network solution provided by Trinity Photonics can be grown in bandwidth and scale continuously. In addition, we do have a special fiber installation technique called "Fiber-to-Everywhere" to install a new optical network in existing conduits without stopping network services.
