A Guide to FTTH Network Planning and Design

A Guide to FTTH Network Planning and Design

Building a Fiber-to-the-Home (FTTH) network is a multi-million-dollar undertaking where the most expensive mistakes happen long before the first shovel hits the ground. Success isn’t determined by the physics of fiber optics, but by the quality of the business and engineering decisions made during the critical planning phase.

A decision to use a distributed split architecture may lower initial costs, but how does it impact long-term revenue flexibility? Your financial model shows a 15-year payback period, but can your engineers redesign the network to meet investor goals without compromising its integrity?

Our whitepaper, A Guide to FTTH Network Planning and Design, provides a clear framework for navigating these high-stakes decisions. It demystifies the process for telecom and infrastructure professionals, covering:

  • The critical trade-offs between network architectures.
  • The essential feedback loop between engineering design and financial viability.
  • The transition from a high-level blueprint (HLD) to a shovel-ready build plan (LLD).
  • Strategies for managing the complex, unglamorous work of permitting and pole loading analysis.

Learn how to de-risk your investment and make the informed decisions that are the true foundation of a successful FTTH project.
