Installing pipe facilities with manholes the conventional way costs between 90 and 400 Euro/m in cities nowadays. A good part of the cost is caused by excavation work and later surface rebuilding. Therefore we benefit from a major saving potential when employing trenchless technologies for installing telecommunication networks.



Installed fibers in sewer system

Since telecommunications is a dynamic sort of business and connecting times are expected to be short, installation methods with high daily installation rates, independent of climatic seasons are having excellent prospects on the market, particularly as licensing procedures are relatively simple. When developing FAST, the concerns of telecommunication networks as well as the sewer systems have been taken into consideration. Telecommunication networks installed in sewer systems with FAST are more than up-to-date, they are up-to-future, This technology facilitates direct access to the customer via the wastewater collection lines. Due to its optimal network structure and the availability at practically any location which telecommunication customers might consider as interesting, the sewer system is well suited to accommodate telecommunication networks.



FAST is an overall package for the installation of fibre optic cables in sewage systems. It utilizes man-entry sewers as well as no-man-entry pipes as infrastructure for fibre optic networks.
