Upgrade / extension

Modularity ensures extension of systems

Maintenance with minimal effect on links in operation

Modular systems assure adaptation and extension

Operation

Constant transmission throughout the entire service life

Secure Management prevents incorrect handling

Cable management prevents performance loss

Challenges for FTTH Networks

FTTH Council 2011; Milano Page 410.02.2011

Cabling is of crucial importance for a trouble-free operation.

Approx. 50% of all network failures, are caused by problems in the cabling system.

- Hardware (Layer1) - Human mistakes

What are the costs caused be a network failure?

What investment is necessary to avoid failures?

Added value of a high-grade infrastructure

Certified installers, … a benefit for highly available infrastructures

The purpose of the Installertraining in Switzerland

The network operators are investing a lot of money for a FTTH infrastructure

The infrastructure is designed for high bandwidths and very high reliability

The course is designed to build a reliable infrastructure from the beginning.

3 Day Training-Program in advance, otherwise no approval for FTTH installations

The training is meant to prevent such work
