Multi-tenant architecture
First Claim
1. A method for creating a network architecture wherein network material is allocated for three tiers including future network clients, the method including:
- a) Establish active optical equipment within a central office;
b) Connecting the central office to at least one Fiber Distribution Flub with at least one Distribution Cable having multiple fibers;
c) Designating a portion of the multiple fibers of the distribution cable such that fibers are allotted specifically to tier 1 demand, tier 2 demand, and tier 3 future demand;
d) Connecting at least one Fiber Distribution Hub to an intermediate splice closure (ISC) with at least one access fiber (AF) cable having multiple fibers;
e) Splicing multi-port service terminal (MST) cable tails into at least one of the access fiber cables at the intermediate splice closure;
f) Connecting at least one network interface device (NID) to the multi service terminal.
