What is Fiber to the Home (FTTH)?
A FTTH is a new technology that uses fiber optic cable instead of copper cable to deliver telephone, data (Internet, etc.) and video services. Fiber optic cables have the capacity for an indefinite amount of data which is becoming a necessity in today’s world. BVTC is hoping to complete the FTTH upgrade for all of their telephone exchanges by 2012. These exchanges include Axtell, Beattie, Centralia, Home, Linn, Oketo, Onaga, Palmer, Summerfield, Vermillion, Westmoreland, and Wheaton.
