The document discusses strategies for delivering fiber-to-the-home (FTTH) internet services in rural and lower density areas using an open access network model. It outlines nöGIG's goal of rolling out future-proof FTTH networks in Lower Austria and describes some key factors for successful service delivery in open access networks, including defining a three-layer operational model, tendering lease contracts for the passive network, managing demand aggregation, and establishing local partnerships. FTTH projects in rural areas can succeed by following these strategies.
