Your Impact:

As an FTTH Planner, you design scalable, cost-effective F2 distribution networks that accelerate residential and commercial broadband deployment. You translate survey data, demand forecasts, and existing OSP conditions into accurate, constructible plans that reduce rework and build costs. By delivering complete, compliant design packages—BOMs, CCTs, Brain outputs, diagrams, and clear documentation—you keep permitting and construction moving on schedule and within budget while improving service coverage, network reliability, and long-term maintainability.
