3.2. Fiber to the Curb (FTTC)

As shown in the diagram below, when an environment can no
longer provide server room space for MSAP2000 installment,
MSAP2000 can alternatively be installed in a curbside cabinet.
Curbside cabinets can connect the subscriber to the COT, using
optic fibers instead of copper wires. Curbside cabinets can
also effectively shorten service distance, thus enlarging the
xDSL bandwidth. Moreover, MSAP2000’s SDH features also
support various topologies, as well as switch protection
functions, which allow MSAP2000 to provide an efficient
bandwidth and superior service quality.
