Fibre to the Building (FTTB) is a fiber optic network connection variant where the fiber optic cable extends up to the building itself. From there, the data is distributed within the building using existing internal cabling infrastructure. FTTB provides high-speed internet connectivity and allows multiple end users within the building to benefit from the advantages of fibre optic technology.
FTTB is a suitable solution for apartment buildings, office buildings or industrial customers, as it enables high bandwidths and fast internet connections. It improves connectivity and performance for the occupants or users of the building while enabling access to various online applications such as video streaming, cloud services, VoIP and other data-intensive applications.
Implementing FTTB requires close cooperation between network operators and building owners or managers to deploy fibre infrastructure to the building and optimise internal cabling. Both the building’s connection to the fibre backbone and the internal cabling must be adapted accordingly.
Implementing FTTB requires careful planning and cooperation between network operators and building owners or managers. It is important to consider the specific requirements of the building and to ensure the technical conditions for a smooth implementation.
FTTB (Fibre to the Building) refers to the laying of fibre optic cables up to the end customer’s building, whereby the data is forwarded within the building via the existing internal cabling. This technology offers high bandwidths and fast internet connections, especially in apartment buildings, office buildings and industrial complexes. Implementation requires close cooperation between network operators and building owners or managers to lay the fibre infrastructure up to the building and optimise the internal cabling. Despite the need for cooperation, FTTB offers an efficient solution to improve connectivity and performance for various online applications, making buildings and businesses more competitive.
