Next Generation Network Plan <br />Page 7 <br />In addition to the obvious cost benefits, the advantage of fiber over existing leased <br />circuits is dramatic: fiber is more reliable, more scaia�le, more adaptable to emerging <br />needs and agplicatiozas, and more future-proo£ � <br />1.2.2 Build Connectivity Assets Now for Future Projects <br />CTC recommends that the NSCC coordinate with each of its members regarding any <br />future or planned fiber optic or other communications projects. These projects may be <br />leveraged or scoped to include the needs of other NSCC members. Increased fiber optic <br />count or additional facilities may be added to a communications project at an incremental <br />cost. <br />Opportunities for cost-effective installation of fiber and other connectivity assets arise <br />each day as city crews' work in the right-of-way. At a minimum, all the NSCC cities <br />should immediately adopt future-looking policies to add to existing fiber and conduit <br />infrastructure at every opportunity to build up critical mass. Every municipal project has <br />the potential to provide long term cost savings on communications infrastructure. <br />Conduit and fiber are the key for future-proofing the cities' infrastructure. There is a low <br />incremental cost to install fiber or conduit during any capital improvement project or <br />repair. Once installed, fiber and conduitg are available for community use or can be <br />leveraged to entice commercial carriers to offer services in the municipality or to build <br />municipal networks. <br />We therefore recommend speedy adoption of a region-wide policy and detailed <br />specifications for installation of conduit or fiber optics during any relevant capital <br />improvement proj ect or repair, including: <br />+ Road construction or repair by departments of public works <br />� Sewer or water line replacement or repair <br />+ Electrical work <br />+ Sidewalk repair and replacement <br />• Relocation to underground of aerial utilities by public and private utilities <br />- Other open trenching opportunities initiated by private utilities <br />+ Any other circumstance under which any municipal department is working in the <br />right-of-way <br />Immediate adoption of a fiber-placement strategy would capture each of these <br />opportunities. <br />� Conduit provides significant savii�gs�---the cost of pulling fiber through existing conduit averages $6,000 <br />to $12,000 per r�vle, as opposed to the cost of new underground fiber construction, which often exceeds <br />$100,000 per mile. <br />all text and diagrams 4 CTC 2007 <br />
