A significant majority of new condominiums and town homes are constructed using a horizontal layout that very closely resembles the arrangement of single family homes. Because of this resemblance, the FTTP connector scheme is often identical.
Usually the network interface will be a Fiber Distribution Terminal (FDT) located on the exterior surface of the structure. FTTP distribution fibers are allocated downstream from the FDH to a particular MDU structure. An FDT located on the exterior surface of the structure may be outfitted with either hardened on non-hardened connectors. Hardened connectors are used when hardened fiber drops are routed along a path outside the structure and then connected directly to the ONT on the side of the individual dwelling. Alternatively, non-hardened indoor cabling may be routed via internal pathways from the FDT to ONT equipment in each unit.
