At a time when our digital uses are exploding, the Internet connection has become as essential as electricity in our homes. Teleworking, ultra high definition streaming, online games, connected objects: the demand for broadband is growing in every room of the house. A new technology is responding to this need: FTTR or Fiber To The Room.
The rollout of fiber-to-the-home (FTTH) has brought a significant leap forward in Internet access quality. However, FTTH has its limits once inside the home: thick walls, room separation and Wi-Fi interference can affect signal quality and reduce performance.
FTTR (Fiber To The Room) is an evolution of the fibre network that extends the optical connection not just into the home, but into every room. This is a solution that deploys a secondary optical cable from the point of entry to the various strategic areas of the home or business premises, guaranteeing very high speeds and minimal latency at every point of use.
In FTTR
architecture, the MFU (Master Fiber Unit) and SFU (Slave Fiber Unit) play a key role in traffic management and signal distribution. The MFU, located at the entrance to the home, is the central element that manages the main connection and distributes the signal to the various SFUs, located in each room or area of use. These SFUs receive the optical signal and connect it to local equipment.
While the active architecture relies on the management and distribution of the signal via the MFU and SFU, the passive architecture is crucial to guarantee optimum network performance. Telenco is specifically involved in this area, offering solutions that enable fibre to be installed in every room, with components designed to minimise signal loss and optimise coverage.
Building on its expertise in telecommunications networks, Telenco designs passive solutions that can be integrated into FTTR installations, such as its range of eline® fibre optic extensions. These all-in-one solutions enable rapid, solder-free installation directly in the field. Designed to make life easier for operators and installers, eline® Rolling-boxes meet a growing need for simplicity, time-saving and discretion, thanks to a transparent or white cable with a diameter reduced to 0.9 mm.

Thanks to the FTTR network, each room benefits from a wired optical connection, ensuring an even distribution of very high-speed broadband. FTTR means you can take full advantage of 4K streaming, the cloud, video conferencing and online gaming, without latency.
By bringing the optical network into every room, FTTR makes it possible to position Wi-Fi terminals strategically. This avoids interference and signal loss, for a more reliable and stable Internet connection. As a result, users get optimised Wi-Fi coverage, with no shadow zones or blackouts.
Whether you live in an old house or a new build, FTTR adapts to all environments. Optimised cabling solutions mean that optical fibre can be installed in every room, without the need for major works. The ability to fit optical couplers in series gives you flexibility in the types of architecture possible.
The FTTR is perfectly suited to the needs of the most demanding users: teleworking parents, children, gamers, or professionals. It guarantees high-quality Internet access, even when the network is under heavy load with simultaneous connections.
FTTR redefines the standards of home connectivity. Thanks to this cutting-edge technology and Telenco's expertise in the fibre network, it is now possible to respond precisely to growing needs in terms of speed, quality of service and reliability. Whether meeting the needs of operators, installers, or end-users, Telenco offers high-performance, scalable, and easy-to-deploy passive FTTR solutions.
