5. 12.9.2015Tekijä / Aihe 5  Secured connections all over in Kainuu area.  Important also as a backbone for present broadband connections like Wimax or ADSL.  Kaisanet has engaged itself to maintain present broadband technologies. Comprehensive local optic network

6.  Both are needed.  Also a link tower has an optic fibre.  Are not quadrated with each other:  Optic fibre is for a “heavy use” of the Internet, like IPTV and HDTV, network games, interaction connections etc.  Mobile connection provides a mobility  Data limit with mobile, e.g. Sonera has two level, Basic connection 3Gbps and Power connection 20 Gbps. 12.9.2015Harri Lepistö 6 Optic fiber vs. mobile

7. Some recommendations for the fibre  Single. mode fibre, standards ITU-T G.652.D or G.657.A (if also fills G.652.D)  Broad wave length area, possibility to use CWDM-systems (many light wave lengths in a same fibre  Compatible with other G.652-serie fibres.  SC or LC connectors.  Cabling passive and with open access.  Full star –topology, but remember cable manufacturers! 12.9.2015Harri Lepistö 7

8. Some technical issues  From a regional fibre network to homes two possibilities:  Active Ethernet or Passive Optical Network (PON)  Ethernet is a quite cheap technology.  Three topologies:  Full star  Active star  Passive optical network  Open Access: both active and passive systems are available  Cable-TV will stay long 12.9.2015Harri Lepistö 8

10. Tecnical issues  In one area in Kajaani there was a heated and insulated distribution cabinet as a fibre hub tested first time, instead of a bigger installation, all active equipment (like fibre switch) were installed into that cabinet (so called Erja Cabinet).  The price if the cabinet is only one fourth of a bigger installation, and it doesn’t need any kind of building permit to install that.  Our experiences have been very good and we have decided to continue with this concept. 12.9.2015Harri Lepistö 10

11. Technical issues 2  In all areas a connection to a home distributor from the backbone cable will be distributed via a hub with active fibre switch (Kajaani and Vuokatti).  At the homes fibres have been terminated to fibre terminal with RJ-45 connections for Internet and VoIP and RF connection for the Cable Television.  The traffic in the building can be distributed wireless or with wire if there is at least Cat5 cabling in the building.  Due to our technology the maximum is today 100 Mbps.  12.9.2015Harri Lepistö 11

12. Technical issues 3  In one area in Vuokatti also TeliaSonera Finland done their cabling, but obviously they don’t have any customers yet.  In Hyrynsalmi in 2010 we used first time GPON technology with passive distributors and now we are collecting experiences also here TSF put their optic cable, but again, without any devices  In Hyrynsalmi RF signal is not available, same in the future in all rural areas  IPTV 12.9.2015Harri Lepistö 12

13. Internal network  The connection from the building distributor belongs to the housing cooperative  The network in an apartment belongs to the owner of the apartment.  Operators’ responsibility finish at the building distributor 12.9.2015Harri Lepistö 13

14. Internal network 12.9.2015Harri Lepistö 14 Telephone cable or Twin cable, Cat5/6 or Optic fibre Optic fibre from Kaisanet

15.  Cabling in an one family house and in an apartment in a bloch house is similar:  Four port in Inteno terminal = 4 rooms + WLAN  A starlike cabling from a terminal  RJ-45 connections should be placed beside the electricity. 12.9.2015Harri Lepistö 15 Internal network

16. 12.9.2015Harri Lepistö 16 Cat6/cabling RJ-45-rasiat Optic Fibre to building

17. About pricing  Ordinary price 766,23 €  A fibre connection includes a fibre terminal, ownership of which will belong to a customer.  A customer will buy an IPTV set-up box and probably also a wireless keyboards.  Kaisanet can do all internal network building, 59 € per hour, incl. taxes.  Household reduction in personal taxing 12.9.2015Harri Lepistö 17

18. Broadband 2015  One fibre per house.  Readiness to all buildings, including leisure time buildings, fibre to joint boxes, no long hanks on the ground.  Address management is very difficult, due to that that areas are not defined according to postal codes.  Who is to tell the price to people?  Own digging is possible only on the own land, how about the public road? 12.9.2015Harri Lepistö 18

19. Broadband to all 2015 2  According to The Finnish Transport the forest clearing combined to the fibre ploughing belongs to the operator  If the road is not ready the ploughing has to be done on the forest side of the road (e.g. asphalted).  How to set a price of the connection to an ordinary customer?  Network planning by communities in the broadband for all vs. network planning by professionals  An optimal network in whole Kainuu area. 12.9.2015Harri Lepistö 19

20. Services are the main issue!  Fast and steady broadband  IPTV and TV-card  Tele presence via fibre  Health services by public and private sectors  Social networking in villages  Work at home  Leisure time living and working  Connections to relatives around the world etc.  Lähiverkkokauppa – own local netstore, will start in February 12.9.2015Harri Lepistö 20

21. Services are the main issue! 2  Instead of technical issues we should speak about services  Fighting against migration in Kainuu with the help of fibre connections.  Kainuu could be a test bed for new health services provided via a symmetric broadband connection.  100 Mbps Card in progress  To support decision making in communities  To change focus to services.  Coordinator is needed for different projects. 12.9.2015Harri Lepistö 21
