First Transmission Solution App Launched

 

ComNet, Communication Networks of Danbury, Connecticut, a USA-based manufacturer of fiber optic transmission and networking equipment, introduced its new product selection app for the iPhone, iPad and iPod touch.

The ComNet Fiber Optic & Ethernet Products app is a solution identifier that allows the user to choose the right transmission product for virtually every application. The ComNet app allows the user to search by application or model number. It also gives the user the opportunity to identify media options and the specific benefits of each when choosing products for new or retrofit applications. The ComNet app gives the user access to product datasheets, installation manuals and A&E Specs for the complete line of fiber optic video, data and audio products as well as fiber optic Ethernet and Ethernet over copper extenders. The ComNet app is available at no charge at the App Store.

“The markets ComNet competes in today are continuing to be very fluid. Business today moves quickly,” said Andrew Acquarulo, Jr, ComNet president and COO. “The days of ‘I’ll send a data sheet, and we can review in our next meeting’ are past. Having a mobile app puts our product information in the hands of our customers and sales people much faster, and we believe this gives us a distinct advantage, competing on a day-to-day basis,” concluded Acquarulo.

“To the best of my knowledge, ComNet is the first transmission product manufacturer to offer a mobile app,” said Skip Haight, ComNet VP of marketing. “Our idea from the beginning has always been to position the company as being focused on innovation, be it product, support or how we strive to delight the customer. Being the first to offer a transmission solution app is another way we continue to set the standard for supporting our customers,” Haight continued.
