It helps protect less environmental impact. your investment, while accommodating future demands. FEWER COMPONENTS Fibre is laid vertically from a central building distributor to the office floor. From there, the cable runs horizontally to an active switch installed at the workplace or service consolidation point, close to Wireless Fibre To The Office Access Points, cameras or other devices. Simplify your network FTTO does away with the need for floor distributors, separate fibre backbone, Nexans LANactive is an alternative LAN technology for use in office environments. Passive fibre cabling and active switches are combined to active equipment, patch panels and racks provide Gigabit Ethernet services from the central core switch to an FTTO or cabinets on each floor, as well as large switch and from there to end user devices. volumes of horizontal copper cabling. Data throughput is uncompromised. Although the entire network operates at 1Gbps, throughput is as good as - or better than - that of a traditional network BETTER POWER DELIVERY setup featuring floor distributors and an aggregated high-speed backbone.

  • Lanactive Switch to the Future
    LANactive Switch to the future Smart Guide to FTTO Q&A Session for Starters Introducing FTTO Most current IT infrastructures are based on a twenty year-old topology which simply can’t keep up with today’s – and tomorrow’s – network requirements. As new applications arrive and convergence increases, there’s a growing need for future-proof scalable infrastructures. These should support Gigabit Ethernet, smart security features and efficient energy consumption. In many cases Fibre To The Office (FTTO), a special last-mile technology for Gigabit Ethernet in office LAN, could be the solution. It can easily accommodate today’s rapidly increasing port density needs with tomorrow’s flexible and resilient network designs. FTTO couples high network reliability with an excellent cost-per-bit ratio. FTTO is ideal if you have, for example, over 200 user desks to connect or plan to implement server virtualisation, DC Ethernet, VoIP, WLAN, Video Conferencing, Building Automation Systems or other high bandwidth applications in the coming years. How do you make sure whether FTTO is the right solution for your cabling project? This Guide aims to provide some answers and definitions. LANactive What is FTTO? Definitions • FTTO (Fibre To The Office) is a special centralized cabling technology for LAN network office envi- ronments. The solution combines both passive fibre cabling and active FTTO Switches to provide end user devices with Gigabit Ethernet services. • Fibre is laid up vertically from the central building distributor straight to the office floor, and from the office floor horizontally right up to a FTTO Switch at the workplace. There is no need for Floor Distributors.
