Air-Blown Fiber Solutions - The Right Architecture Choice for MDUs

The upsurge in multi-dwelling unit (MDU) construction in the U.S. has escalated the need for efficient broadband connectivity for this expanding residential market. The dilemma is knowing which fiber optic system will maximize the technology while minimizing the time and cost of installation.

The choice comes down to a traditional deployment, including spliced fiber distribution cable in conduit, or an Air-Blown Fiber (ABF) Solution that provides a point-to-point microduct pathway to each unit with proven ROI and scalability. This paper will detail the two scenarios and provide a real-world use case to demonstrate cost comparisons.
