Abstract
The utilization of optical fiber cable as a data transmission medium has provided various benefits and advantages in terms of data transfer and economically because it can reduce the use of many copper cables. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the feasibility of Fiber To The Home (FFTH) networks by measuring and analyzing power losses caused by attenuation along the fiber optic cable. Measuring tools for attenuation use JDSU MTS-8000 while the power measurement uses Optical Power Meter. Feasibility specifications refer to ITU-T G.984. recommendations. The analysis results show that of the 110 customers observed, the average value of Link Power Budget is 20.58 dB, with an average power margin of 5.57dBm. If comparing the results of the ITU-T G.984 recommendation, it stated that was accepted, still in accordance with the rules specifications. Feasibility studies of FTTH networks on the issue of power loss and attenuation are needed in an effort to maintain the quality of service to customers. It also has a relationship with planning and developing system installations in the future.
Highlights
The need for communication services with fast information transmission, better signal quality, and safer security factors make technology must be developed and updated
Along with the increase and growth use of fiber optic cable as a data transmission medium, it often occurs information loss factors caused by losses that occur along the fiber optic cable, one of these losses is the power lost due to attenuation that produces power changes from an optical transmitter to reach the optical receiver
When the system experiences interruption along fiber optic cable, in this case, it occurs in one of the Internet Service Providers (ISPs) in Indonesia, from attenuation and power data that occurs at the Internet service providers (ISPs), conducts research to analyze the performance of fiber optic communication systems caused by attenuation and strength along fiber optic cable
Summary
The need for communication services with fast information transmission, better signal quality, and safer security factors make technology must be developed and updated. The use of Fiber to The Home (FTTH) networks that use Fiber Optics as a transmission medium can meet the needs of residential customers to find a faster network connection for broadband services [2]. Feasibility studies of FTTH networks on the issue of power loss and attenuation are needed in an effort to maintain the quality of service to customers. It has a relationship with planning and developing system installations in the future
