    LAST-MILE GUIDE Leveraging KentuckyWired for local broadband deployment Phone: 606-677-6000 Address: Email: [email protected] 2292 South Highway 27 Web: www.centertech.com Suite 300 Social Media: facebook.com/CRDbroadband Somerset, KY 42501 This Page Intentionally Left Blank The Center for Rural Development’s Fiber Infrastructure Project - Phase 3 is funded by grant KY-18984-17 from the Appalachian Regional Commission and is administered by The Center for Rural Development. Page 3 of 20 OVERVIEW The Last-Mile Action team was formed to help your community with the task of solving the “Last- Mile” dilemma that faces most of rural America. The team was created as a partnership between The Center for Rural Development, which works to positively impact the communities within 45 counties of Southern and Eastern Kentucky, and SOAR, part of whose mission it is to enhance opportunity and innovation in Appalachian Kentucky. The last-mile is the final bit of fiber optic cable, copper wire or radio transmission that goes from a home, business, school or hospital and connects into the “middle-mile” infrastructure. The middle-mile is typically an intra-state web of high-speed, high-capacity fiber optic cable that consolidates thousands of last-mile connections and gets them access to the national tier 1 internet providers. There have been numerous discussions with telecommunications providers over the years regarding improving service and widening availability of broadband access, but little to no improvement had taken place until the KentuckyWired initiative. The fiber infrastructure that exists in the service area is dated and is being used, for the most part, at capacity.

  • The Changing Route to the Last Mile
    White paper The changing route to the last mile www.commscope.com 1 In most European countries telecommunications service providers have rolled out either copper or fiber networks as far as the street cabinets or drop points from which connections are made to customer premises. These connections cover what is referred to as the ‘last mile’—the final route taken by a cable from the street to the subscriber. The last mile to the customer is, in most European countries, a copper network, but replacing copper with fiber—or fiber to the home (FTTH)—is being actively considered across the continent. In particular, the so-called Digital Agenda, presented by the European Commission as one of the seven pillars of the Europe 2020 Strategy, suggests that new services such as high definition television or video conferencing need much faster internet access than is generally available in Europe. It proposes that Europe needs download rates of 30 Mbps for all of its citizens and at least 50% of European households subscribing to Internet connections above 100 Mbps by 2020. FTTH is seen as a way of achieving this. This, however, may be easier said than done. Fiber is replacing Fiber, meanwhile, is also coming closer to the home. In fact not just copper in many networks but the closer you bring fiber cable to the fiber to the curb (FTTC) but fiber to the drop point or distribution customer the more expensive it gets, partly because you eventually point (FTTDP) allow fiber terminations within very close range of have to penetrate the customer’s premises.

  • Bringing Broadband Over the Last Mile
    TELECOM Interactive 97 Infrastructure - Session [GII.9] BROADBAND TECHNOLOGIES - CRASHING THE BANDWIDTH BOTTLENECK BRINGING BROADBAND OVER THE LAST MILE Implementation Issues for ADSL By Mark Huntzinger Director, 3Com ADSL System Product Management Introduction This paper covers some business and technical implementation issues of extending the broadband network to the end user, using Asymmetrical Digital Subscriber Line (ADSL) to send multi-megabit data over ordinary subscriber loops, the “last mile” of the installed copper plant, to end-users. In order for a mass-market, broadband-access network to develop, it requires low costs and flexible services for market segments. Key issues of ADSL service are how to configure and manage concurrent connections from end-users to their multiple service destinations, end-to-end. 3Com sees three implications: · ATM is the key back-end infrastructure needed to build a broadband-access network over the last mile, because it best accommodates end-to-end connections. For the ADSL end user, who is a telecommuter, Internet enthusiast, or small office, ATM does wonderful things. But the carriers must hide the complexity of ATM from the end user; this is a lesson learned from ISDN experience worldwide. · Renovation of the Element Management System and the configuration process are key to making the business case for mass deployment. Management systems will have to learn to look end-to-end, not just at a collection of elements. · Open standards are the key to lowering costs, protecting customers’ investments, and achieving interoperability. ADSL equipment vendors and customers that are slow to adopt open standards endanger their ADSL business.

  • Smart Grid Last-Mile Communications Model and Its Application to The
    IEEE TRANSACTIONS ON SMART GRID, VOL. 4, NO. 1, MARCH 2013 5 Smart Grid Last-Mile Communications Model and Its Application to the Study of Leased Broadband Wired-Access Felipe Gómez-Cuba, Student Member, IEEE, Rafael Asorey-Cacheda, and Francisco J. González-Castaño Abstract—This paper addresses the modeling of specificSmart Grid (SG) communication requirements from a data networking research perspective, as a general approach to the study of dif- ferent access technologies suitable for the last mile (LM). SGLM networks serve customers’ Energy Services Interfaces. From functional descriptions of SG, a traffic model is developed. It is then applied to the study of an access architecture based on leased lines from local broadband access providers. This permits con- sideration of the potential starvation of domestic traffic, which is avoided by applying well-known traffic management techniques. From previous results obtained for a purpose-built WiMAX Fig. 1. A wired ISP access network carries SGLM data.

Practically speaking, network structures make it virtually impossible to deliver the bandwidth available at a landing site intact to a consumer’s home, often due to obsolete technologies or an unworkable number of links. Last Mile seeks to overcome this bottleneck, delivering connectivity without compromise to areas that su!er from a dearth of bandwidth.
