  Optical Fiber – Emerging Business Cases and Challenges: K -FON (Kerala Fiber Optic Network) Heading the game   Renewable energy and energy-efficient electric devices disrupt the existing business model of electricity boards. As a result, the electricity board will have more difficulty achieving profitability and revenue goals. Thus, the Electricity boards are changing their objective as power distribution and supply companies and a core and middle-mile, last-mile infrastructure (information highway). State Electricity Board of Kerala state India with creating fiber-optic information highway using the power distribution passive infrastructure of state electricity board is a massive step towards this strategy step.   Image: K FON Strategy: Source: https://kfon.kerala.gov.in/ Better power supply and New Revenue stream The fiber-optic network provides instant feedback and real-time data sharing between plants, substations, and offices. As a result, improved response times t

Mobile back haul technology Trade-Offs  and Cablesmith Approach Thanks to the information superhighway, mobile revolution and smarter technologies, we are living in a digital world where everything is connected and hence can be digitally activated world, is literally at our fingertips. The data boom that ensued has resulted in the transformation of certain technologies. One such example is the shift of interest from macro cell towers to small cells with a focus on indoor coverage and capacity as 80% of data traffic is generated indoors. What are small cells? Small cells, a growing technology, are low powered Radio Access Nodes that has a network range of 10 meters to a few hundred meters depending on the output power and frequency. The value of small cell market was $10.35 billion in 2016 and shot up to $12.5 billion in 2017. According to industry prediction, the small cell market will have a rapid growth, projecting a market of $58.7 billion by 2024. Why are the advantages of

Just like the famous tagline that goes   ‘A lot can happen over coffee‘ put forward by one of India’s largest coffee café chain - Café Coffee Day, Cablesmith is opening new doors in the network connectivity infrastructure of a building that facilitates huge possibilities for the builders, operators and tenants making their space a smart space. Be it cellular coverage, FTTH Connection, voice, data, video security or building management system, information is increasingly critical to the productivity of the building occupants and the overall network performance of the building. But the quality of the information flow is solely determined by the type of cabling system the building holds. A conventional unstructured cabling system that carries multiple cables from multiple network vendors all lands at the telecom room gradually making it an ever-messy cabling system that slow down the network performance and making it a constantly interrupted connectivity system inside a building .
