RE: Canada losing *Tech companies* Interesting SR. Apart from the message contained in the article there is a reminder of the breadth of POET here. RuggedCom was a maker of communications equipment for harsh environments. Transformer Stations where the devices are exposed to electromagnetic surges. POET is a hardened technology designed to withstand electromagnetic disturbances for space critical application plus all the advantages of POET in performance, economics and reliability do to simplified packaging and reduced footprint. The energy savings becomes fairly significant as well when we consider the burden on DC backup systems where Transformer Stations lose their grid connection and rely on battery banks to supply essential station service especially communications equipment.
Just an example of the breadth of POET
