FTTH optical fiber in 30 new municipalities: is yours too?

There FTTH optical fiber reaches 30 new Italian municipalities. The news comes from FibraClickportal-point of reference for those who have doubts / questions about optical fiber and Internet connections in general or simply want to know more about FTTC, FTTH, FWA, BUL network, network infrastructures, etc.

The very latest concerns the extension of the FTTH fiber to another 30 municipalities of the so-called “white areas, The most problematic from the point of view of access to ultra-broadband connectivity. FTTH stands for Fiber To The Home, therefore “fiber to the house”. Another thing is the FTTC fiber, Fiber To The Cabinet or “fiber up to the cabin”, which includes both fiber cables (up to the cabin, in fact) and copper cables (from the cabin to the homes).

In short, in the case of FTTH fiber, the connection will be ultra broadband, therefore considerably faster, if compared to the service offered by FTTC technology. Even if you don’t think so, the distance between the cabin and the house really makes the difference, so this is a very important aspect to clarify when you decide to install optical fiber inside your home.

If the replacement of the copper cables is impossible, you can always use an alternative solution, a “compromise” that provides for the fiber optic connection from the main control panel to a condominium control unit (called “FTTB” or Fiber To The Building).

As you can imagine, however, FTTH technology remains the most convenient, given its low environmental impact and the upgrade it offers in terms of stability and speed.

Below we list the 30 Municipalities that from today will be able to take advantage of all the advantages related to this type of connectivity:

• Aradeo (Lecce);
• Azzio (Varese);
• Bassignana (Alessandria);
• Besenzone (Piacenza);
• Bubbio (Asti);
• Carosino (Taranto);
• Carpinone (Isernia);
• Corno Giovine (Lodi);
• Correzzana (Monza-Brianza);
• Fontanigorda (Genoa);
• Gallo Matese (Caserta);
• Irma (Brescia);
• Longone al Segrino (Como);
• Maccastorna (Lodi);
• Morgano (Treviso);
• Pastena (Frosinone);
• Pontelandolfo (Benevento);
• Quarto d’Altino (Venice);
• Rocca di Mezzo (L’Aquila);
• San Cassiano (Lecce);
• San Pietro in Lama (Lecce);
• Sanluri (South Sardinia);
• Santo Stefano Lodigiano (Lodi);
• Sarezzo (Brescia);
• Sava (Taranto);
• Solonghello (Alessandria);
• Squinzano (Lecce);
• Stella Cilento (Salerno).

For a few thousand satisfied citizens, there are many more who are still waiting to be able to take advantage of an ultra-fast Internet connection that fully exploits the potential of FTTH optical fiber. The hope is that the digital divide go to decrease more and more, with intensified interventions especially in the white areas.
