ADC FTTX Service Pack Network Card User Manual


 
FTTX SERVICE PACK
No matter what you call it, adding fiber to the local loop is a major strategic initiative for a
number of carriers. Fiber to the customer premises represents the ultimate broadband
connection for the end user, and promises to help carriers deliver value-added services while
increasing the average revenue per user.
While a great deal of attention is focused on the outside plant (OSP) implications of FTTX
deployment, FTTX creates a number of critical issues at the central office (CO), including:
Space reclamation as higher-density fiber frames and WDM equipment require a larger
footprint than POTS equipment
Upgrades to passive and active network equipment elements
Infrastructure build-out to support high-density equipment
Changes in primary and secondary power demands
FTTX deployment is more than OSP. Unless the CO is optimized for FTTX, services can't be
delivered efficiently.
The FTTX Service Pack from ADC addresses this critical component of FTTX deployment. The
FTTX Service Pack is a professional services bundle designed to help carriers optimize their COs.
It's a modular approach that blends the best of ADC's services customized for FTTX.
