Mission Statement
The Fiber Optics LAN Section (FOLS) of TIA represents technology leaders committed to providing the most current, reliable, and vendor neutral information about fiber optics and related technologies for advancing new and better communications solutions.
FOLS participation is open to all members in good standing of the TIA (click here to search for your company if you are not sure). In addition, companies who are not TIA members can participate as Affiliate members.
Each member company is entitled to one voting member, however, companies may have several members attend Section meetings or participate on committees. Any representative has a choice of being on any, all or none of the section's three committees: Standards, Communications and Membership.
Marketing Assessment :
Participating members of the TIA FOLS pay an annual assessment to the Section to help fund communications initiatives. These activities, which are directed by the Communications Committee, include the development of white papers, case studies, trade press articles, and presentations. Companies are welcome to attend meetings without paying the assessment but are not eligible to participate in activities, or to receive materials funded by the assessment. To help ensure that all companies interested in FOLS can participate, two levels of membership are available.
