TYLITE'S
ENDURING FIBER NETWORK (EFN™) COST ESTIMATOR
Easy
access to broadband networks will be a key differentiator for
cities, businesses and individuals. Tylite architects the extensive
implementation of symmetric broadband networks by effectively
addressing the key issues of cost, regulatory morass and technology.
Why
pay a consultant when you can get accurate cost estimates for
free? Using Tylite's online cost estimator, the cost of an Enduring
Fiber Network is right at your fingertips.
Many municipalities,
counties and PUDs are interested in broadband fiber to the home
networks. They understand that new clean industries are only
interested in cities that can provide high-speed broadband access.
While legacy DSL and cable networks offer limited broadband
performance and upgrade capability, Tylite's design provides
a minimum of 100 Mb symmetrical (both directions) connectivity
to everyone. For those who require it, multiple gigabit access
is available right to the business or home. There will never
be a need to replace the infrastructure with "something
else". This is Tylite's future proof design.
The estimator
program provides a conservative estimate of the cost to build
or over-build a new optical fiber infrastructure to provide
a complete network, including the cost to each home or business.
The estimate includes all fiber, all electronics, all placing
and splicing costs and all engineering. Tylite has developed
the best design for fiber-to-the-home (FTTH) projects. This
design, in most cases, will pay for itself with Internet connection
(36% take rate) revenue alone in 5 to 8 years, and with
additional revenues from telephone and video in much less time.
Other designs generally are so expensive that high take rates
from all three sources of revenues are required to reach a break-even
point in 10 to 20 years.
Input is
very simple.
-
Population of the area in question
-
Number
of residences
-
Average
city block size (Most cities have a core area - older part
of the city - that is made up of blocks; if you are uncertain,
use 350' as the default size)
-
Average
city lot size (if you are uncertain, use 5000 square feet
as the default size)
-
What
percentage of the total residences in the core area will be
served with aerial infrastructure?
-
What
percentage of the total residences in the core area will be
served with buried infrastructure?
-
What
percentage of the of the total residences reside in curvilinear
areas (areas that are outside the core area which are newer
subdivisions not based on a rectangular block design)
-
The
sum of "aerial" plus "buried" plus "curvilinear"
must equal 100%.
