Fibre networks can be very costly, and the pressure to keep them low in an attempt to reduce consumer pricing levels is high. This is crucial since consumers will always gravitate towards internet service providers who provide cost effective services. When it comes to reducing costs of a fibre network, we need to look at the total cost of ownership and not only products in isolation. It is only when there’s a price reduction here that you can you bring network costs down.
Cost-effective infrastructure
To be able to reduce the total cost of ownership, you need to focus on providing cost-effective deployment methods. This essentially means that you need to reduce product and installation costs all the while maintaining high quality.
Focus on quality products
When it comes to a fibre network, cutting costs in every domain is not possible and could severely hamper the quality of the network. Rolling out high-quality products helps you maintain a low Opex cost which means that the product will work superbly well for several years and would not require frequent maintenance. Thus, by reducing maintenance costs, you can reduce the overall fibre network costs and increase your return on investment.
Boost deployment speed
Providing consumers with services right on time is crucial. The faster you are up and running the more happy and loyal your customers will be and the quicker you will get a return on your investment. The interesting thing here is that focusing on boosting your deployment speed doesn’t just help keep your customers happy but can also enable you to provide services to more households. An important practice to adopt is to standardize deployment methodologies and techniques. This way, you can deploy fibre networks faster and provide quicker services to all your customers at reduced costs.
