- "End
User" Section of FOA Web Site
- FOA has started addressing the
specific needs of the end user of fiber optic networks and systems.
A new section of the FOA website is devoted to the end user,
trying to cover the questions users call us to ask. The information
is not just for users, but installers, contractors and consultants
need to be familiar with it also, and we'd suggest they share
it with their customers, as it will help explain fiber optics
in terms they will understand and help everyone communicate better
about fiber optic projects. More
in the FOA Newsletter.
-
- Want To Know More About FTTx?
- The FOA has a special FTTx
webpage that includes a FTTx
PowerPoint tutorial and links to FTTx websites. See an online
PowerPoint presentation we've developed to introduce FTTx to
contractors and installers which will tell you about FTTx markets,
technologies and opportunities. More
on FTTx.

locations where they will do installs, plus a short description
of their organization, work experience, etc. The database can
be searched by any parameter so the user can get a close match
to their needs for fiber optic expertise.
