Fibre-to-the-Node (FTTN)

Fibre-to-the-Node (FTTN) is a broadband internet setup where fiber optic cables run to a street cabinet (the 'node') close to homes. From there, traditional copper cables connect the cabinet to individual houses. This setup combines fast fiber connections with existing copper wiring, providing reliable internet. FTTN is more cost-effective than installing fiber directly to each home (FTTP) and offers improved speeds compared to older copper-only networks, making it a common solution for delivering high-speed internet across many neighborhoods.
