DESIGNING BROADBAND FIBER-OPTIC NETWORK INFRASTRUCTURE AND EVALUATING ITS EFFICIENCY
Abstract
This article discusses the theoretical and practical foundations of designing broadband fiber-optic network infrastructure. It examines the role of fiber-optic communication networks in modern telecommunications systems, the selection of network architecture, planning of cable routes, placement of active and passive equipment, subscriber connection processes, and methods for evaluating the technical and economic efficiency of the network. In addition, important indicators such as optical signal loss, network bandwidth, transmission delay, reliability, quality of service, and energy consumption are analyzed. The article emphasizes the necessity of considering the number of subscribers, characteristics of the service area, expected future traffic volume, and possibilities for network expansion during the design of broadband optical networks.
