Services
Fiber-to-the-User is 21st century architecture for delivering multiple services (Voice, Video and Data) to the customer premises. This technology involves laying down fiber optic cable from the carrier’s point to the customer premises.
ConnecTEL FTTU uses single-mode fiber.
Fiber to the User is deployed either using an Active or a Passive Architecture. A Passive FTTU network is also called a ‘Passive Optical Network’ or PON for short.
A Passive Optical Network avoids placing electronics (Routers, switches, line cards etc.) in the field. In an Active Optical Network, electronics (routers, switches etc.) are placed in cabinets. These cabinets need air-conditioning, power, backup power etc. Such cabinets typically serve 400 to 500 customers. ConnecTEL uses Active Optical Network.
ConnecTEL offers Triple-Play services, which means Voice, Video and Data. Internet, cable TV and telephone services are available on the FTTU.
ConnecTEL can provide up to 1 gigabit of bandwidth to the customers.
