Business Wire
Corning Incorporated (NYSE: GLW) and Lightwave, a unit of
business-to-business media and information company PennWell
Corporation, today announced the winner of the seventh annual
FTTXcellence Award. Chuck Hartlen of Bell Aliant in Atlantic
Canada, is the recipient of the award, which honors individuals for
their contributions to optical access network deployment in North
America.
Understanding that Bell Aliant required a major access network
improvement to deliver bandwidth for future growth, Hartlen, senior
vice-president of customer experience, led the team. He shared his
passion and was key in creating the drive to make Bell Aliant the
first company in Canada to cover an entire city with fiber to the
home (FTTH).
Hartlen’s passion for FTTH is contagious and he never misses an
opportunity to educate others. His continued leadership in the
areas of deployment, collaboration, and the customer experience has
been instrumental in creating Bell Aliant’s FTTH network, FibreOP™.
By the end of 2012, Bell Aliant’s goal is to have FibreOP deployed
to over 600,000 homes and businesses.
The nomination committee selected Hartlen from a pool of highly
qualified candidates across several industry segments, all of whom
were nominated by their peers. The award was presented Sept. 15
during a ceremony at the 2010 FTTH Conference & Expo in Las
Vegas. At the ceremony, a donation was made in Hartlen’s name to
One Economy Corporation, a global non-profit organization that
leverages 21st-century technology to help low-income families build
assets and raise their standard of living.
“Chuck Hartlen is a passionate advocate for the benefits that
FTTx provides to homeowners and businesses. His passion extends to
ensuring that his customers have the best possible experience from
installation to service and beyond,” said Clark Kinlin, president
and CEO of Corning Cable Systems. “Along with his peers, we
congratulate Mr. Hartlen on this honor.”
"FTTx technology promises to provide a wealth of new, high-speed
services to homes and businesses across North America," said
Stephen Hardy, editorial director and associate publisher of
Lightwave. "We at Lightwave are pleased to join Corning in
recognizing Chuck Hartlen, who has been a leader in bringing these
benefits to consumers and other end users."
“It’s a tremendous honor for everyone at Bell Aliant. Under the
leadership of our CEO, this has been a collaborative process,
bringing together the entire organization to provide the best in
advanced technology and innovation, all with our customers at the
heart of what we do,” said Chuck Hartlen, senior vice president,
customer experience, Bell Aliant.
