FTTH
Lets say you are going to place FTTx to

all living and business units
in the city below :
Or you are going to place cable

in a new development:
Where should the splitters be placed?
Where should the feeder boundaries be placed?
Where do the branch feeder routes go?
Where should the feeder routes be placed?
How many feeder routes?
Where should the hub/headend/

central office be placed?

CONCLUSIONS
even for an optimistic take-rate, it is optimal to

aggregate about 192-224 homes (6-8 splitters) in an
urban deployment and 96-128 homes in a rural
deployment. In the urban context, the lowest cost
architecture taking into account the additional
fiber related costs and OLT port savings has an
OFAP (Optimal Fiber Aggregation Point) size of
about 200 homes.

2. Use 2 fiber drop to have a spare fiber

available
1. Design for about 8 drops per closure
Fiber Drop Design:
4. Plan approval up front streamlines approval process
3. Proper cable sizing for the entire network
build dates
2. Manage budgets over the years to meet targeted
all the pieces fit together in the end
1. Have a long range plan to follow to make sure

Technology Roadmap:
Figures 1 and 2 show SEM micrographs of fiber endfaces. In both cases the cleaved fiber surface was
briefly etched in acid (48% HF for 3 minutes).
SEM micrographs taken by OFS.
Figure 1. High purity synthetic silica fiber

.
No risk of long wavelength hydrogen aging loss

Minimizes degradation of strength and break
frequency
high purity synthetic silica:
Acne like condition shows difference between

pure and clean synthetic quartz vs natural quartz
with its impurities and inclusions.
Figure 2. Cheap natural quartz raw material fiber

clearly shows many pits and imperfections .
Alkali impurities can lead to long wavelength

hydrogen aging loss
Particulate inclusions can lead to degradation
of strength and increased break frequency
Natural Quartz raw material:
Stable Reliable Performance needed for FTTX

Lets say you are going to place FTTx to
