A:
For several reasons. Electroline was the first company to develop and
market an addressable tap technology. Electroline was also the first to
develop and market a drop amplifier exhibiting a 3 dB noise figure by
incorporating gallium arsenide (GaAs) technology in its design. Finally,
Electroline was also the first company to develop a return path management
technology that could locate the source of ingress directly into the distribution
plant within a matter of minutes. Today, Electroline still remains years
ahead of the competition with its ongoing R&D efforts on its product lines.
