TAILIEUCHUNG - Distribution Architecture: Hardened Connectors vs. Field Splicing

Making cost-sensitive decisions about deploying FTTX architectures requires service providers to not only look at initial installation costs, but to also peer into the future regarding operational and maintenance expenses following service turn-up. Cost modeling allows the deployer to review the financial benefits of their design choices before deployment begins. This paper specifically addresses the cost comparisons between using hardened connectors vs. splices in two basic areas of the FTTX network – the distribution plant and drop cable portions | Distribution Architecture Hardened Connectors vs. Field Splicing Distribution Architecture Hardened Connectors vs. Field Splicing Making cost-sensitive decisions about deploying FTTX architectures requires service providers to not only look at initial installation costs but to also peer into the future regarding operational and maintenance expenses following service turn-up. Cost modeling allows the deployer to review the financial benefits of their design choices before deployment begins. This paper specifically addresses the cost comparisons between using hardened connectors vs. splices in two basic areas of the FTTX network - the distribution plant and drop cable portions. Cost savings can be achieved on both sides of the service terminal by installing hardened connectors. Although most network architects agree that hardened connectors are optimal for the drop side of the service terminal many are unaware that the cost on the distribution side is also at cost parity or in many cases lower when using connectors in lieu of splicing. The result is an overall lower installed cost for the FTTX network as well as tremendous operational savings over the life of the network. Large cable and splices In many typical FTTP architectures a very large distribution cable containing 48 to 216 individual fibers is deployed from the Fiber Distribution Hub directly to the service terminal. The service terminal could be a splice case a pedestal a hand hole or mounted on a pole. In the case of a spliced network between one and 12 fibers will be prepared inside the service terminal for connecting to drop cables that service each individual home. The remainder of the distribution cable will continue to the next service terminal where the next one to 12 fibers will be split off and made available for service. Each time service is ready to turn up at a particular home a technician will go to the terminal cut off the appropriate length of drop fiber cable from a large spool and pull the
