You did it!

You successfully designed and built a FTTH network. But you’re not done...

After turning a network on, you can’t just leave it running on its own. You must be able to easily measure performance and track a variety of metrics over time. In addition, you need to be able to expand your coverage area and reach new subscribers quickly, which requires knowing everything you can about your network’s existing elements.

You need a comprehensive platform that can consolidate network information in a single place and help you actively monitor performance with ease. You need OSPInsight.

So you’ve chosen a design for your FTTH network. And you’ve evaluated it to ensure that it’s a good investment for you and your potential subscribers.

Now, it’s time to prep for deployment.

Congratulations!

You’ve designed a FTTH network that you think will fit your subscribers’ needs well.

Now, is the fun part.

You need to evaluate your design financially and operationally to ensure that it is, in fact, the right approach.

In April's webinar we showed off the new Help Center.  We're excited to make this live for you to start using! 

Choosing the right architecture for your FTTH network is essential. Your network’s design has a major impact on both deployment costs and network performance.

FTTH learning never stops.

Every year, innovations in fiber optic material and installations impact how network developers approach their FTTH deployments.

As someone who builds FTTH networks, it’s important that you always know where to learn about the latest and greatest advances in the space.  

There is no such thing as a perfect fiber optic network.

Network issues arise for many different reasons, from bad weather to vandalism. As a network operator, you need to build redundancies into your network and anticipate problems that could compromise services for your clients.

Keeping track of fiber optic terminology is tricky.

When it comes to discussing FTTH deployments, there are additional definitions and concepts that are important to know as a network developer. Below is a snapshot of the most important terms to help you get started.

The fiber optics space has evolved significantly over the last several decades.

Many different kinds of stakeholders have helped shape the industry into what it is today. However, a few organizations are particularly noteworthy for their past contributions and continued dedication to fiber.

In October, the Fiber Broadband Association released its first ever Fiber Guide, a free downloadable report that covers the latest trends and developments across the industry.

At a time when internet demand is skyrocketing worldwide, the Guide helps explain why fiber is the broadband technology of the future.
