Share

Zyxel Communications announced the company’s flagship WiFi 6 product, the AX7501-B0, has successfully completed the Broadband Forum’s international BBF.247 GPON Certification Program and is XGS-PON certified.

“Broadband Forum’s BBF.247 certification program sets the industry standard when it comes to data and technology interoperability for service providers,” said James Harris, Product Director, EMEA at Zyxel Communications. “This certification accelerates IOP integrations for multi-vendor OLTs that have already deployed, while also giving operators the confidence to complete larger, more complex deployments and still reduce churn.”

Leveraging Zyxel’s OPAL software already deployed to millions of devices, the AX7501 helps service providers deploy and migrate to new technologies fast and easily. In addition to the AX7501’s technical capabilities, Zyxel’s BBF.247 certification is representative of the company’s industry- next-generation fiber access solutions.

The Broadband Forum’s BBF.247 Certification Program has helped pave the way for new broadband technologies by addressing a variety of ONUs; testing various VLAN profiles and functionality. Certification of ONU devices assures conformance with the Broadband Forum’s TR-156 and TR-280 specifications, as well as the International Telecommunication Union’s G.998 GPON standards.

MSCI to Consult on a Potential Reclassification of Greece to Developed Market status27.1.2026 01:15:00 EET | Press release

MSCI Inc. (NYSE: MSCI) announced today the launch of a consultation on a proposal for the potential reclassification of Greece from Emerging Market status to Developed Market status in one step, with implementation targeted for the August 2026 Index Review.

However, at the time, Greece did not meet the Size and Liquidity persistency rule, which requires a minimum number of five companies to meet Developed Market Standard Index criteria over each of the last eight Index Reviews to consider an upward reclassification. MSCI treats European countries classified as Developed Markets as a single entity for index construction and maintenance purposes. This approach reflects the high degree of integration
