FTTP is the technology that brings fibre from the exchange all the way to the business or home (FTTH). Optic Fusion has the test equipment and components suitable for fibre to the home (FTTH) and fibre to the premises (FTTP) deployment. As the demand for bandwidth increases beyond the capability of copper networks, fibre deployment has become essential to deliver the required data rates of HDTV and superfast and ultrafast broadband. Super HDTV 4k and 3D TV has pushed the bandwidth needs further. What bandwidth rates will be reaching? People are now talking about 10Gigabit. Whatever it will be, it will be on Fibre Optic Cable!
Fibre Optic Cable, The Better Solution
Making the switch from copper cable to fibre optic cable has many benefits. If you need some convincing before you make your first fibre optic cable purchase keep the following facts in mind.
Fibre - Much More Efficient
Fibre optic cable operates much more efficiently and is more secure than traditional copper cabling. Fibre can transmit far more information over greater distance and with a higher clarity while offering a more secure connection due to the fact that fibre optic cable is much more difficult to tap.
Fibre - Does Not Require Grounding
Since fibre is made of glass, which is a bad electrical conductor, it does not require grounding and shields itself from other electrical interference. Fibre cables can be run near electrical cables without fear that it will weaken or interrupt the signal.
Fibre - Corrosion Resistant
Fibre optic cable does not corrode and is not as sensitive to water or chemicals. This means you can safely run fibre cable in direct contact with dirt or in close proximity to chemicals (with the proper outer jacket materials).
Fibre - The Safer Choice
Since fibre is not a good conductor of electricity, an installer or user will be safe from electrocution if there is a break in the outer jacket and the fibre is exposed.
