Dakota Central Uses ADC FTTx Equipment

Dakota Central Telecommunications of North Dakota is installing ADC’s OmniReach FTTx equipment in its network to give users digital television, music and high-speed Internet.

The deployment “has resulted in a tremendously efficient way for us to manage our fiber-optic cable infrastructure," says Paul Berg, chief plant officer at Dakota Central Telecommunications. "ADC's fiber distribution frames and fiber access terminals take into account the central office and outside plant environments.”

The project gives Carrington and Jamestown residents access to more than 100 channels of digital television, and 45 digital music channels. In addition to high-speed Internet, users also have new Internet options over fiber with an always-on 64k connection to replace their dialup service.

ADC Fiber Distribution Frames provide a centralized point for termination, splice and storage of fiber-optic cable. ADC OmniReach Fiber Access Terminals deliver optic service drops in FTTx deployments.
