Drivers and inhibitors of fibre optics advancement into access networks at home and abroad
Kuchar, Anton ; Hrstka, J.
Inspite of the fact that FTTx networks are the most future-proof solution for the access networks, they are mature and there is sufficient supply of equipment on the market, the pace of their implementation in various countries and regions vastly differs. In the contribution, the up-to-date situation concerning implementation and utilization of optical fibre access networks is presented and drivers and inhibitors of fibre optics advancement into access networks are identified.

Analysis of situation in implementation of FTTx networks at home and abroad
Kuchar, Anton ; Hrstka, J.
In the contribution, up-to-date information on implementation and utilization of optical fibre-based FTTx-type access networks in the Czech Republic and abroad is presented. Emphasis is placed on economical and political aspects of this process. Some successful FTTx projects realized at home and abroad are described. An attempt is made to outline the trends of development of FTTx-based access networks.

FTTx case study
Kuchar, Anton ; Švrček, M. ; Wacnik, E.
In the framework of the European IST project BReATH (BRoadband e-services and Access for The Home) techno-economical analysis of a broadband access network employing FTTx architecture has been performed. The aim of the FTTx project is to enhance the existing CATV network enabling to provide triple play services and extend it to cover a new home development area. FTTH as well as FTTB and P2P/P2MP variations have been considered. The case study can serve as an inspiration for other similar cases.

Access to high-speed Internet via small and medium CATV networks
Kuchar, Anton ; Bárta, P.
In the Czech Republic the CATV networks play an important role in provisioning access to broadband Internet. It is a natural supplement to the service of TV and radio broadcasting while based on IP protocol also the basic telephony service can be cheaply provided. In the paper various aspects of providing access to broadband Internet over small and medium CATV networks that are deployed mainly in small towns and villages are discussed.
