Abstract

The Telesector Resources Group is currently in the process of detailing the life cycle cost benefits of deploying fiber based distribution systems over copper based systems. Although many of the benefits would appear to be easily identifiable most are not as obviously quantifiable at this point in time as one might expect. Hopefully, this paper provides some insight into some of the difficulties of providing full and complete life cycle cost analyses.
