Fiber Access: RFoG and PON Cases

摘要

Fiber to the home or premise (FTTH or FTTP), it still seems like a new category.rnFiber itself-or the hybrid fiber/coaxial (HFC) architecture-was introduced more than two decades ago. The industry's $65 billion investment from 1996 to 2002 was heavy on fiber and optoelectronics. This latest spurt of interest in and activity surrounding fiber-to-the-wherever (FTTx), however, is only several years old.rnThat means it roughly corresponds with both the economic downturn and the continuing rollout of FTTH from Verizon.
