Fiber to the Home - The Tipping Point

Proceedings ELMAR 2006, 2006
Future of a dynamic process is hard and ungrateful to predict. The intention of this paper is to look at areas of further optical networks development and to consider some environmental circumstances for the next step forward-fiber to the home. Experience from the own communication past and examples chosen, may be a clue for the best direction.

GPON for fiber to the home

SPIE Proceedings, 2005
Finding the right technology to cover the last few miles of any network has always been a problematic challenge for service providers. Whether wireless, copper or optical links are to be used, there's inevitably a set of competing technologies to choose from. Finding the optimum solution can be a complex process, with numerous interlinked factors to be

Internet service and fiber-to-the-home

Proceedings of Optical Fiber Communication Conference (, 1997
NTT is to start deploying a new fiber-to-the-curb (FTTC) type of STMPON access system to provide mainly POTS/ISDN services in those access areas where old metallic cables need to be replaced with new cables. Fibers will reach the last point before homes on an area-by-area basis.

Optical fibers reach into homes

IEEE Spectrum, 1989
The replacement of the standard series-connected pair of twisted copper wires that connects each home to the telephone network today by optical-fiber cabling that can handle broadband services is discussed. The technologies needed for the fiber to the home, which are dominated by such considerations as bit rates, network architecture, and power ...

Fiber-to-the-home: 1997? 1998?

Conference Proceedings. LEOS '97. 10th Annual Meeting IEEE Lasers and Electro-Optics Society 1997 Annual Meeting, 2002
On both telephone and cable fronts, attention has returned to "fiber-to-the-home" as a "now" solution. New networks and technologies have reduced costs, emphasis is shifting to "full-service" capabilities, and FTTH's costs and benefits are more-accurately understood.

Fiber to the home: reality and dream

11th International Conference on Integrated Optics and Optical Fibre Communications. 23rd European Conference on Optical Communications IOOC-ECOC97, 1997
In order to revolutionize the communication network in the 21st century, NTT is concentrating its attention on full access network opticalization. There are three conditions that must be simultaneously satisfied to achieve full opticalisation. They are as follows: (1) Further cost reduction of the fiber-optic access network. (2) Development of a system

The costs of devolution [fiber to the home]

Communications Engineer, 2007
Carriers around the world are grappling with the double-headed problem of offering high bandwidth triple play services of voice, data and video against the backdrop of replacing their local loop copper cabling and the ultimate aim of replacing it with optical fibre for FTTH (fibre-to-the-home).
