National Service Providers
Fiber-to-the-home (FTTH) is a rapidly growing market, with the potential to transform how we live, work and play. This transformation has been led by distinct market segments worldwide, market segments that each have their own unique advantages for deploying FTTH and unique business needs to be successful.
Municipalities are considering broadband communications as integral to “quality of life.” Home developers are viewing fiber as a critical to home entertainment and information networks. And national and rural service providers are responding to the demands of their subscribers for the “triple play” of converged voice, data and video. All are finding creative ways to install fiber-optic cables in the ground or along the rights of way previously reserved for copper.
At Corning, we have spent years not solely understanding the fiber-optic requirements for successful FTTH, but the drivers and challenges facing each market segment. We understand that, when it comes to successful next-generation broadband deployment, the needs of a town planner or utility operator will differ fundamentally from those of a service provider or home developer.
