Abstract :
The Mohawks of the Bay of Quinte (MBQ) decided in 2009 to deploy a Fibre to the Home (FTTH) network to provide Internet services to their citizens. The services offered by the exiting Internet Service Providers had proven slow and in some instances unattainable to the residents. Today the network is in place and serving 300 locations across the Nation.
