What is Fiber to the Edge (FTTE)? | Corning

FTTE is an architecture for LANs that uses optical fiber to bring data to the edge of the network where the network interfaces via ports or wirelessly through cellular or Wi-Fi with Internet of Things (IoT) devices, like cell phones, laptops, security cameras, machine-to-machine controls, building management systems, automated guided vehicles, etc. and the applications that support them.
FTTE is ideal for businesses that need high capacity and flexibility in their network. Optical fiber delivers the high bandwidth, low latency, reach, and flexibility required to meet the demands of developing applications, like next-gen Wi-Fi, high-availability A/V, and 5G within a single building or across a large campus.

Specialty Optical Fibers Play an Increasingly Important Role

Specialty optical fibers are typically used in much shorter lengths than their telecom counterparts, averaging anywhere from a few centimeters to just a few meters in distance per application. These fibers are designed to be application specific, and can condition and amplify light in a way that traditional telecom optical fiber can’t, providing a necessary service so that networks can offer faster and more reliable connections.

How Fiber-Deep Network Solutions and 5G Can Help the Hospitality Industry Recover Post-COVID | The Signal Network Blog by Corning

Few industries were hit harder by the pandemic than hospitality.Even with the expected economic boom due to pent u p travel demand, the industry will take years to fully recover. But it’s also an opportunity for hospitality to build back better. Simultaneous with the industry’s recovery will be the widespread rollout of fiber-deep and data rich networks like 5G and WIFI6. These networks can support technologies that help hotel guests feel safer post-pandemic, and enable the industry to lay the groundwork for other high-tech services in the future.
