Abstract :
Easy and complete solutions for implementing fiber-in-the-home networks are presented in terms of optical cable installation, fiber connectorization, fiber distribution, and optoelectronic interfacing modules. Multi-functional capabilities of the fiber-in-the-home networks for broadband networks communication, building energy management, fire alarming, and structural health monitoring are proposed.
