Why FTTH ?

There is no other choice !

Optical Fibre to the home, office, building, street, highway, cell site,wifi-wimax, G3-G4 hot spot is a necessity...

...with fibre the only viable choice on any cost, economic, operations, facility, future basis

The technologies of the past can ’t cut the mustard...they really can’t...

Fewer people = Fewer faults

A linear reduction in people number s (~70%) see s an exponential fall in fault rates (~90%)....and faster response/repair times...

Reprogramming replaces rewiring...

Simpler topology and e q u i p m e n t l e a d s t o simpler and lower cost control and management...

The world is not an asymmetric place...

...and it doesn’t like variable signal quality, latency and delays either!

The sustainable future is about everything and everyone being wireless and on line....

...the bandwidth of such a future can only be satisfied my optical fibre in the last/first mile

It is about connectivity, access,data, information, sharing, and new modes for industry, commerce, eduction, training, heath, living...

People, vehicles, things cluster to sporadically demand bandwidth, a lot of bandwidth...

More wireless means more optical fibre...

Cloud computing will fail if we do not have ample bandwidth and connectivity...

No other technology c a n p r o v i d e t h e bandwidth and utility demanded today and in the future...

FTTH is the most cost effective solution giving the best:

- OPEX- RoI- Cost of Ownership- Reliability- Resilience- Utility- Future proofing
