FTTH installation set for Fire Island

According to the news source, representatives from the Fire Island community brought their case to the New Yorkstate Public Service Commission and the Federal Communications Commission. Verizon was the only carrier providing landline services in the location, so the initial decision to move to wireless created concern in the community. The new FTTH network, on the other hand, will give west Fire Island residents multiple voice, internet and television options.

Building FTTH networks efficiently
Maximizing installation efficiency is vital to installing FTTH infrastructure. FTTH networks do not always deliver immediate revenues, creating a situation in which telecoms must minimize costs during installation. This must be done while also ensuring network reliability to avoid excess maintenance costs. Fiber to Ethernet media conversion solutions can enable telecoms to build efficient FTTH networks without taking on excess costs to overcome compatibility issues. Because of this, media converters can play a vital role in supporting efficient FTTH installation.

Perle has an extensive range of Managed and Unmanaged Fiber Media Converters to extended copper-based Ethernet equipment over a fiber optic link, multimode to multimode and multimode to single mode fiber up to 160km.
