Laughlin Ranch development in Bullhead City, Arizona is going all fiber. What with everyone deciding to move to Arizona (despite a lousy baseball team) the demand for high end homes is booming in the desert state. Laughlin Ranch is eventually going to have over 40,000 homes. Greenfield Communications, an FTTH operations firm, is managing the deployment and so far has signed up 100 beta customers. The FTTP network is using Optical Solutions (OSI) FiberPath 500 Gigabit Passive Optical Network (GPON) technology. GPON’s have become a technology of choice for most FTTH providers including Verizon which has indicated its affection for GPON. More.
