6 TOTAL SOLUTIONS FOR MODERN FIBRE OPTIC NETWORKS The demand for broadband solutions is constantly rising. That means that the number of fibre optic networks is also increasing worldwide. The size and topology of these networks vary by region. Therefore, TKF is constantly innovating in the field of Telecom Solutions. For improved, flexible, cost-saving and easy to install solutions. Our ACE concept As a total solutions supplier within the TKH Group NV, TKF developed the ACE concept, a total solution for modern fibre optic networks. ACE is a certified and guaranteed concept for passive FTTx networks. As a total concept ACE provides the broadband market with a new vision on building fibre optic networks. ACE does not only consist of products, but also guarantees compatibility between all the different components and offers complete, passive solutions. 8

7 The ACE concept is mainly a success of people. People with knowledge and skills concentrated in the ACE team. Together with our customers we share technical knowledge and help our customers to stay ahead with our continuous developments. ACE not only has the right products, but also ensures that the various components fit together seamlessly in the fields of application: POP, OSP and Subscriber. 9

8 POP Solutions Building a FTTx network starts at the drawing board where configuration, technology and planning are defined. One of the most challenging parts of the network is the POP (point of presence). This is the centre (heart) of the network where all connections are made and active equipment is installed and operated. It is essential to exclude all possible risks during and operation. TKF has gathered all its experience and know-how within the ACE concept, to cover the full range of options to achieve an optimal POP performance. POP s need to be built close to the subscribers. Moreover they need to fit into this environment and meet the requirements of the subscribers on construction, size, shape, colour, noise and place. TKF has set up a flexible design that meets all demands. A street cabinet solution or a large POP building, they all fit within the ACE concept. The ACE POP solution offers: Flexible design High and super high density ODF Optional SAODF (semi-automated ODF) Third operator solution Partial delivery or turnkey solution OSP Solutions Civil work is the major cost driver (>70%) of the total cost ofownership (TCO), to build FTTx networks. The cost of civil work vary from country to country, sandy or rocky soil and paving: tiles, concrete or no paving at all, make a big difference in cost. Within the ACE concept TKF offers solutions for each OSP network to lower the cost per individual challenge. Direct burial cable solution: Within the ACE concept, TKF has developed a full range of products making the of a direct burial cable concept easy and cost saving. Heavy duty steel or Kevlar protected cables are available together with all components, like closures and access chambers that fit in this application. Modular cabling solution: In order to meet the various demands (success based s) it is often required to use a modular cabling system in FTTx networks. ACE offers a full modular cable solution including all accessories like closures, duct connectors, fibre blowing equipment and a special ODF, for easy of all tubes within the POP or street cabinet. 0

9 Aerial solution: In case of existing aerial infrastructure (f.i. power lines), it can be cost saving to use this infrastructure to install a FTTx network. ACE offers a full range of ADSS cables suitable for this application. TKF has experience with sewer paths and fibre through gas pipelines. To prevent expensive digging operations, TKF has looked at all the different trenching possibilities, like macro and nano trenching. All these cost saving solutions can be fully integrated within the ACE concept with warranty and certification. All these solutions and options require tailor made products and systems. TKF has developed a total ACE subscriber solution for both single and multi dwelling units (SDU and MDU), that fit all these demands and still keep the cost low. Special indoor and outdoor cables have been developed. And a full series of fibre splice and patch boxes are available in all required sizes and shapes, designed and tested for this challenging environment. Subscriber Solutions The main challenge when building a FTTx network is getting access to the subscriber. As we are operating within the public sector, possible challenges are: Availability of subscribers during office hours Wishes and demands of house and building owners Local regulations and cooperation of all subscribers in the chain: - Are we allowed to install on the outside of the building? - Can we install in hallways, cellars or elevator shafts?
