ADC FTTX Service Pack Network Card User Manual


 
The ADC FTTX Service Pack is made up of three service levels:
LEVEL ONE — A FTTX readiness assessment to determine whether a CO is ready for FTTX
deployment, or if it needs minor or major modification to support FTTX
LEVEL TWO — Completion of any minor modifications needed at the time of assessment or
shortly thereafter
LEVEL THREE — Completion of major modifications, which could include engineering, furnishing and
installation (EF&I), commissioning, integration, decommissioning and removals to optimize the CO
Carriers that demand quality and consistency from their networks will benefit from ADC's FTTX Service
Pack. Regardless of the size and scope of deployment, ADC can ensure that each and every CO is
ready and optimized for FTTX and new technology deployment.
ADC Professional Services teams have extensive experience in multivendor multitechnology, multiservice
environments. We help deploy equipment from more than 60 network equipment manufacturers,
making ADC the best choice for any type of CO environment.
