FTTx solutions are provided to service providers to meet the increasing demand for higher speed broadband. By extending the fiber network to the premise, it enables higher bandwidth and new services, while reducing operational costs. Service providers have options to choose either point-to-point active fiber or use PON for a shared fiber connection.
This document outlines Allied Telesis FTTx solutions designed for service providers facing increasing bandwidth demands from high-definition video and multimedia applications. It highlights the financial benefits of extending fiber networks to premises, such as higher Average Revenues Per User (ARPU) and reduced operations costs by retiring legacy copper infrastructure. The guide positions Allied Telesis as a global leader in delivering scalable, reliable Ethernet FTTx solutions since 1987.
Active Ethernet fiber can operate up to 40km.
The use of passive splitters generally limits the distance to about 26km.
Typical deployments deliver approximately 31Mbps in the downstream direction.
