Innovative FastPass Fiber Distribution system cuts install time required for homes passed by 50 percent<\/em><\/h4>\n\n\n\n

MINNEAPOLIS– Clearfield, Inc<\/a>. (NASDAQ:CLFD), the specialist in fiber management for communication service providers, today announced the FastPass\u2122<\/sup> approach using in-cassette splicing<\/a>. Community broadband operators can reap significant benefits in ramping Homes Passed deployment plans based on market demand and competitive market forces. The FastPass approach utilizing in-cassette splicing<\/a> significantly reduces Fiber Distribution Hub (FDH) cabinet costs and speeds installation times allowing for double the number of fiber homes passed in the same amount of time versus legacy install methods. These time savings benefit any operator required to meet strict deployment deadline requirements associated with federal and state broadband funding programs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cThe need to reduce the time required for fiber homes passed is becoming mission critical for broadband providers across the country,\u201d said Jeff Heynen, Vice President, Broadband Access and Home Networking at Dell\u2019Oro Group. \u201cFiber deployments are a land grab right now and whoever gets to the consumer first wins. Clearfield\u2019s FastPass approach challenges the status quo of FDH cabinet installation methods and provides a way for broadband operators to jump to the front of the line for their customers.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cAs fiber broadband deployments rise with federal infrastructure funding, the ability to deploy fiber faster, and at a lower cost, is a clear competitive advantage for any operator,\u201d said Kevin Morgan, Chief Marketing Officer at Clearfield. \u201cIndustry observers predict more homes will be passed with fiber in the next five years than has been deployed to date, and Clearfield is committed to helping our customers deploy fiber first as they enter new markets, start new builds, and look to close the digital divide for everyone.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Splicing within the Clearview Cassette is unique: the splicing function is not performed on a separate splice tray but is contained on the cassette itself. The cassette can be easily removed from the cabinet and travel whatever distance is required to reach the splice trailer. The splicing operation remains the same, it\u2019s just performed on the cassette rather than on a separate tray. This eliminates the need for the cable stub, splice trays, the splice closure and the vault needed to store the splice closure and cable stub slack, saving more than $1,000 per FDH cabinet deployed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Clearfield is hosting an ISE webinar, \u201cIt\u2019s Just a Matter of Time: How to Maximize your FDH Deployment Savings Using Clearfield\u2019s FastPass\u2122<\/sup> Approach,\u201d on April 20, 2022, at 1:00 pm CST.
