OSP - Outside Plant: Elevating Connectivity with FTTH Services

In telecom, OSP stands for outside plant. The OSP consists of all the equipment, cable, and infrastructure, located outside the building. OSP installations historically were copper, and coax based, however more and more fibre networks are being installed. These fibre networks are referred to as FTTP or FTTH (fibre to the premise or home).

The OSP topology consists of:

  • The central office (CO) or headend or point of presence (POP)
  • The cable distribution (either underground or aerial)
  • The midspan nodes where field mounted repeaters and splitters are located
  • The service location or “premise”

Installing the OSP in the field includes both urban and rural, underground and aerial, and requires specialized equipment and labour to ensure an efficient and high-quality installation.

Current global demand for the equipment, and more importantly the experienced labour to perform the safe installation of the cable and the skill required to terminate the cable, has placed a premium on this type of work.

Key elements of our FTTH services-oriented OSP approach are

  • A fully experienced team equipped with the specialized equipment to deliver
  • Lineman, telecom experience and splicing teams available
  • Experienced with both traditional cable and pre-terminated material
  • Excellent safety record and compliance with various incumbent telecom infrastructure providers for pole/conduit access
  • Understanding of remote location logistics, wide breath of support crews, and dynamic scheduling required for in the field changes
  • Represent the owner's interest
  • ComplyWorks and Cognibox compliant
  • Integrated customer and project specific KPI reports
  • Documentation close-out package services
