A practical handbook for planning and operating FTTH networks

Jim Hayes’s handbook brings together material on fiber to the home (FTTH) from the Fiber Optic Association’s guide and CFOS/H certification curriculum, with additional coverage of project design and management. Its scope spans the technical and organizational questions involved in developing a network: from considering a project to planning, designing, building, and operating one. The book also addresses different project models, including initiatives led by service providers, local governments, electrical cooperatives, or public-private partnerships. This makes it a broad reference for understanding the components of an FTTH project and the roles involved in bringing one into operation.

Good fit for readers who enjoy

  • People evaluating or planning an FTTH project for a community or service provider
  • Professionals involved in designing, building, or operating fiber-to-the-home networks
  • Those seeking a reference that combines FTTH technical material with project design and management

Book overview

It has become obvious that high speed Internet access has become a necessity for everyone not a luxury. The best and most obvious solution, fiber to the home (FTTH, ) has become a reality and is in widespread use worldwide. This handbook is written for those who want to know more about FTTH, whether they are considering a FTTH project for their area or are involved already in planning, designing, building or operating a FTTH network already.
The Fiber Optic Association (FOA) is the international professional organization of fiber optics and certifying body for fiber optic technicians. FOA has been involved with FTTH since in the early 2000s. This book began as a compilation of all the FTTH materials from the FOA Guide and FTTH CFOS/H certification curriculum and expanded with additional materials covering FTTH project design and management. The FOA materials come from almost two decades of experience with FTTH including developing training curriculum for training techs for the earliest commercial installations of FTTH and consulting with many diverse FTTH projects.
This handbook is written to provide the technical information that can help a service provider understand how to start a FTTH project or a local organization decide if they want to create a do-it-yourself FTTH project run by their local government, electrical coop or a public-private partnership.
