    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fiber_to_the_premises_in...

    With its U-verse product, AT&T (formerly SBC) had pursued a strategy of Fiber to the Neighborhood (FTTN) and had even delivered Fiber to the Premises (FTTP) prior to the services' launch. Currently, U-verse is deployed as a Fiber to the Hub (FTTH) service; the line connecting the hub to the home is a dual copper pair line.

  4. Outside plant - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Outside_plant

    Outside plant cabling, whether copper or fiber, is generally installed as aerial cable between poles, in an underground conduit system, or by direct burial. [2] Hardware associated with the outside plant must be either protected from the elements (for example, distribution frames are generally protected by a street side cabinet) or constructed ...

  5. Computer network - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Computer_network

    The transmission media (often referred to in the literature as the physical medium) used to link devices to form a computer network include electrical cable, optical fiber, and free space. In the OSI model, the software to handle the media is defined at layers 1 and 2 — the physical layer and the data link layer.

  6. Fiber to the x - Wikipedia

    Fiber to the x (FTTX; also spelled "fibre") or fiber in the loop is a generic term for any broadband network architecture using optical fiber to provide all or part of the local loop used for last mile telecommunications. As fiber optic cables are able to carry much more data than copper cables, especially over long distances, copper telephone ...

  7. Fiber cable termination - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fiber_cable_termination

    The most common types that are added to fiber optic cable in inside plant environments are LC, SC, ST, and FC. Some fiber connectors are pre-polished mechanical connectors for ease of installation or anaerobic connectors which require cleaving and polishing. [1] Once the appropriate connector has been identified, the termination process can begin.

  8. Fiber-optic communication - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fiber-optic_communication

    The process of communicating using fiber optics involves the following basic steps: creating the optical signal involving the use of a transmitter, [9] usually from an electrical signal; relaying the signal along the fiber, ensuring that the signal does not become too distorted or weak; receiving the optical signal; converting it into an ...
