Description
With the advent of RFoG, cable operators can leverage an all-fiber access network (AFAN) solution that is compatible with much of their existing headend and customer premise equipment. In this webinar, we will look at some of the factors that are both encouraging and enabling this option for cable operators. An overview of RFoG is included, along with discussion on the design trends and solution sets that can support an all-fiber strategy for cable operators.
