intec presents the ARGUS® F240 fiber tester at ANGA COM
intec Gesellschaft für Informationstechnik mbH, German innovation leader in the field of telecommunications measurement technology, will present its ARGUS® brand multifunction testers at this year's ANGA COM in Cologne, Europe's leading business platform for broadband and content providers. Besides the twice award-winning ARGUS® 300, the ARGUS® F240, a new compact fiber tester, will be presented there.
(Lüdenscheid, Germany): The ARGUS® F240 reliably tests on GPON and XGS-PON and relies primarily on touchscreen operation. The selective 5-fold power meter can be switched into an existing PON connection in through mode, allowing the optical levels on the different downstream (OLT) and upstream (ONT) wavelengths for GPON, XGS-PON and a video overlay to be precisely determined simultaneously via five separate filters. This allows other transmitters that may be on the line (alien ONT) to be detected. Additionally, the PON ID can be read out from the PLOAM message. The ARGUS® can also perform a complete ONT simulation with IP and performance tests at up to 2.5 Gbit/s on GPON and XGS-PON.
Furthermore, the ARGUS® F240 has many other test functions, such as WLAN analyzer, triple play tests as VoIP, IPTV and data tests in the form of upload/download, ping and traceroute as well as iperf or high-performance IP speed tests directly on the fiber or on Ethernet.
The SFP slot can be used, among other things, for the deployment of Active Ethernet (AON), as is often the case in FTTH installations. In addition, the Fiber-Inspection-Tool can be connected via USB, which detects scratches and defects on optical fibers and displays them as a video image and in tabular form.
intec at ANGA COM: May 23-25, Hall 7, Booth F44.

Vyoma’s first Space Domain Awareness satellite has reached orbit13.1.2026 13:42:00 CET | Press release
Munich, 13. January 2026 - Vyoma, a Germany-based company providing Space Domain Awareness (SDA) capabilities, has launched its pioneering surveillance satellite, Flamingo-1, on Sunday, January 11th, 2026 from Vandenberg Space Force Base, California, USA. It was launched aboard the Twilight rideshare mission with SpaceX via Germany-based launch integrator Exolaunch. The satellite was deployed to its operational Sun-synchronous orbit of approximately 500-km in altitude. This marks a significant achievement for the company, which patented the operational concept of an optimized SDA mission. Flamingo-1, equipped with an optical sensor for space-based space surveillance, is a gamechanger for Europe, strengthening SDA efforts directly from orbit. The advanced optical instrument will detect, track and characterize space objects, such as debris and other satellites. Crucially, it will allow Vyoma and its customers to follow up on manoeuvring objects and derive insights into adversary actions

Acousia Announces Completion of Patient Enrollment in Phase 2 PROHEAR Study Evaluating ACOU085 (INN: Bimokalner) for the Prevention of Cisplatin-Induced Ototoxicity8.1.2026 09:00:00 CET | Press release
Tübingen, Germany, January 8, 2026 Acousia Therapeutics GmbH, a clinical-stage biotechnology company developing treatments for acute and chronic inner ear hearing loss, announced the completion of patient enrollment in its Phase 2 PROHEAR clinical study. ACOU085 (INN: Bimokalner) is a proprietary, first-in-class small molecule that has demonstrated robust and reproducible efficacy across multiple preclinical hearing loss models, including drug-induced ototoxicity. The PROHEAR Study is a double-blind, randomized, placebo-controlled, split-body, multicenter Phase 2 trial. It enrolled young male patients with metastatic testicular cancer who are scheduled to receive cisplatin-based chemotherapy. While cisplatin is a highly effective chemotherapeutic agent, cumulative doses of ≥300 mg/m² lead to clinically meaningful, permanent hearing loss in the majority of patients. Fifteen leading university hospitals in Germany are participating in this interdisciplinary study. Patients are randomized
