Project: FTTH Fiber System in MDU (Multiple Dwelling Unitenvironments)
Location: Spain
Company: Tyco Electronics
FTTH initiative
FTTH is the delivery of a communications signal over optical fibre from the operator’s switching equipment all the way to a home or business, thereby replacing existing copper infrastructure such as telephone wires and coaxial cable.
FTTH is one of the most powerful technologies for fixed Internet access:
- It promotes the performance and the reliability of passive infrastructure,
- It offers the fastest and most symmetrical connection speeds,
- It allows the evolution of new Internet uses, multimedia and connected services thanks to speeds much higher than those of ADSL.
