Taylor Telephone Co-op in the Zhone

Uses HPNA gateway to deliver voice and DSL

      

Taylor Telephone Cooperative, a voice and high-speed DSL provider with customers across 14 Texas cities and nine counties, will use Zhone’s intelligent residential gateway for all future smart home upgrades, the two companies announced.


Taylor said that Zhone’s ZNID technology, which uses dual HomePNA chips to enable simultaneous operation over standard phone line and/or coax cable, will be the platform for the company’s fiber-to-the-home initiative to deliver voice and multi-megabit DSL service. Taylor began installing Zhone’s zNID-GPON system in June of this year and has now moved to the gateway as a way to quickly enable home networks.

The zNID gateway is “extremely popular with our field technicians who would rather not crawl under a customer’s house or climb into an attic to run cable,” said Bill Whisenhut, plant manager for Taylor Telephone Cooperative in a news release, who said Taylor saves on truck roll and installation costs and “just as importantly we avoid the disruption and anxiety that drilling and cabling poses to our customers.”
