What is the Charm of Fiber to the Home

FTTH (fiber to the home, also known as Fiber to the Premises) is an optical fiber communication transmission method. Directly to the optical fiber connected to the user's home (user required). Specifically, FTTH is refers to the optical network unit (ONU) is installed in a domestic user or enterprise users, is in addition to the optical access series FTTD (fiber to the desktop) outer closest to the user, is in addition to the optical access application type.

FTTH significant technical characteristics is not only to provide greater bandwidth and enhanced network data format, rate, wavelength and protocol transparency, relaxed on the environmental conditions and power supply requirements, simplify maintenance and installation.

There are five advantages of FTTH:

• Firstly, it is a passive network from the central office to the user, in the middle can be basically passive;

• Secondly, its bandwidth is relatively wide, long-distance carrier fits the large-scale use of the way;

• Thirdly, because it is hosted on the fiber business, so nothing;

• Fourthly, because of its relatively wide bandwidth, support for the agreement is more flexible;

• Fifthly, with the development of technology, including peer-to-peer, 1.25G and FTTH developed functionality.

In the family of optical access, there are FTTB (Fiber to the Building), FTTC (Fiber to the Curb), FTTSA (Fiber to the Service Area) and so on. Optical fiber directly connected to the user's home, its bandwidth, wavelength and transmission type of technology does not limit, suitable for the introduction of a variety of new business is the best business transparent network, is the ultimate way to access network development.

Although the development of mobile communications at an alarming rate, but because of its limited bandwidth, the terminal volume can’t be too large, the display screen is limited by factors such as, people are still seeking the relative performance of the dominant fixed terminal, and it is hoped to achieve FTTH.

Fiber-to-the-home charm is that it has a great deal of bandwidth, it is to solve the "last mile" bottleneck the best programs from the Internet backbone to the user's desktop. This fiber optic communication strategies and FTTN (fiber to the node), FTTC (fiber to the curb), HFC (hybrid fiber-coaxial) are different, they are to rely on traditional metal wires, including twisted pair and coaxial cable for the "last mile" of information transmission.

Sopto is focus on FTTH construction that we are a professional fiber to the home server. We supply wide range of fiber optic products, including fiber optic transceivers, PDH Multiplexers, Fiber Media Converters and so on.
