The MDU environment offers significant challenges to network providers. Ranging from older existing buildings to newly constructed facilities, the cabling strategy V-Linx Application can vary greatly. OFS’s V-Linx Spool and Play Solution is designed to address the varying conditions in MDU infrastructure. Uniquely designed for dense, multifloor units, the V-Linx Solution provides components that can be configured flexibly to address the profusion of cabling conditions within both Greenfield and Brownfield environments.
The V-Linx Spool & Play Solution can simplify MDU deployments and help decrease their overall cost by significantly speeding up installation and requiring less labor to install the cabling backbone. A simple set of spool-and-play hardware allows a small service team of one or two people to install the entry distribution cabinet, route a few factory-built riser assemblies, and plug drop boxes to the riser quickly and efficiently into the MDU. The system is designed to minimize multiple long-run riser installations and eliminate splice time. These hubs are designed to enable small crews to deploy entire systems in hours versus traditional large crews taking days.
