Internet FTTH
FTTH (Fiber to the Home)
Is a telecommunications technology that brings fiber optics directly to homes and businesses. Optical fiber is a transmission medium that uses pulses of light to transport data at high speeds, providing a much faster and more reliable internet connection compared to traditional technologies such as ADSL or coaxial cable.
Advantages of FTTH
High speed
Allows very high download and load speeds, often reaching gigabits per second (Gbps).
Reliability
Less susceptible to interference and signal degradation compared to copper.
Low Latency
Ideal for applications that require fast responses, such as online video games and video calls.
Expansion Capacity
Can support future increases in bandwidth demand without major changes in infrastructure.
How FTTH works
Central Infrastructure
The network begins at a central location where the main telecommunications equipment is located.
Distribution
Optical fiber is distributed through local networks that reach the vicinity of homes.
Last Mile
Fiber optic reaches homes directly, connecting to optical termination equipment (ONT) that converts the optical signal into electrical signals that can be used by household devices.
