Abstract
Fiber optic access networks have been considered a definitive solution to the constant need for increasingly higher bandwidths. For this reason, PON (Passive Optical Network) have grown enormously in the recent years, offering different solutions to the end customer, whether it is residential or business. However, the PON project is complex and a time-consuming process. This paper is focused on a tool design that, when combined with the schematic of the PON project, performs the survey of all equipment used in the projected cell. This tool provides also the attenuation calculations, as well as the techno-economic study of the network. Simulations were carried out to test the viability of the software, considering the network analysis in two cases: with one service provider using the network or with two service providers sharing it.

We currently live in an interconnected world, in which telecommunications shorten distances between continents and people
To-The x (FTTx) solution becomes the focus of Service Providers (SP) in the development of the network, aiming to bring the fiber as close as possible to customers and make the network compatible with future fiber optic technologies. [2] discusses the future direction of optical access networks and proposes a new optical access architecture that will support the evolution of optical access systems from a Fiber-To-The-Home (FFTH) infrastructure to a common optical access platform that connects various devices and systems to anywhere they want to reach
It is intended that this application performs the dimensioning and the techno-economic analysis of this type of network for different scenarios of projects developed in AutoCAD
Summary
We currently live in an interconnected world, in which telecommunications shorten distances between continents and people. This software provides: identification of the potential number of customers in the project area, cost calculation, required components list, project documentation, project information for contractors and suppliers, maintenance and troubleshooting and operational management of the active network.
