ABSTRACT:
A multiple dwelling unit (MDU) optical fiber splitting unit (FBU). One or more fiber strands enters the FBU at the MDU. Each strand may be connected to a variable attenuator. Each strand is subject to a one to four split. Each of the four split fibers is connected to an optical connection interface such as an SC/ACP connector. Each optical output is connected to an MDU-ONT that supplies an optical interface to copper and cable infrastructure, enabling fiber-based services to be provided to units in an MDU with reduced installation costs and utilization of existing twisted pair and coaxial distribution lines.
