This document discusses issues found with the design of fiber to the home (FTTH) networks in Bermuda. It notes inconsistencies between address point files and drop designs within sample fiber distribution territories (FDTs), with some address points missing drops and some drops designed without corresponding address points. The boundaries of the FDTs are also analyzed, finding that they were not distributed efficiently throughout neighborhoods and some extended into the ocean. Fiber access terminals (FATs) within the FDTs are noted to be centered rather than spread out.

1. Madcom analyzes Bermuda FTTH design

2. ALL FDT BOUNDARIES

3. The address point files in relation to the spreadsheet I sent
Should there be address in the middle?
Red color is for file15-10-06
Green Color is for file15-09-29
Yellow color is for file 15-09-28

4. 1 Sample FDT boundary outlined light blue

5. FDTs should have been distributed out into the neighborhoods

6. Not sure why the FDT boundaries drawn out into the ocean???
FATS in the FDT

7. Overlooked Address points and drops in one sample FDT

8. Zoomed in to Overlooked Address points and drops in one sample FDT
Purple lines drawn to address points with no drop design, circled areas
show drops designed to housing unit with no address point

9. Top Right circle example of units with no address points.
Bottom Right circle examples of address points missing drops

10. Circled areas shows more locations with no address points
Obvious the FDTs {Structures} were not spread out efficiently

11. Left shows housing unit with no address point
Right shows address point with no drop
Black lines are FAT boundaries
FATs should be spread out NOT centrally located
