Abstract

Abstract— The increasing demand for high-speed, reliable internet access in the digital era has led to the decline of conventional copper-based networks and the rise of fiber-optic-based solutions. This study focuses on the design and development of a Fiber To The Home (FTTH) network using Gigabit Passive Optical Network (GPON) technology in Banaran Subdistrict, Sukoharjo Regency, an area with growing economic activity, particularly in the Micro, Small, and Medium Enterprises (MSME) sector. The implementation of GPON is seen as a critical infrastructure enhancement that supports regional development, education, and digital connectivity. The research methodology began with site surveys using Google Earth Pro and QGIS to collect spatial data such as household coordinates and pole locations. This data was then processed using Setics Sttar Planner version 2.3.12, enabling automatic calculation of optimal cable routes, equipment locations, and required component specifications. The resulting FTTH design covers four neighborhood units (RW 1, RW 2, RW 4, and RW 5), serving a total of 630 homepasses. Key components of the network include 1 Optical Line Terminal (OLT), 2 Fiber Distribution Terminals (FDTs), 46 Fiber Access Terminals (FATs), and 125 poles. The power link budget calculation, essential to determining signal feasibility, produced theoretical receive power values between -15.089 dBm and -14.144 dBm. Field implementation and post-deployment measurements were conducted in RW 1 and RW 2 to validate the theoretical model. Adjustments were made due to site constraints, including reductions in splitter and FAT counts, as well as cable length modifications. Measured receive power values ranged from -16.71 dBm to -16.22 dBm, which still fall within acceptable standards defined by PT. iForte Solusi Infotek (between -10 dBm and -21 dBm). The differences between calculated and actual measurements were attributed to splicing quality, variations in cable deployment, and environmental factors. Overall, the study successfully demonstrates the feasibility and efficiency of deploying GPON-based FTTH infrastructure in semi-urban regions like Sukoharjo. The integration of digital tools for planning and field validation ensures optimal network performance, supporting the goal of bridging the digital divide and enhancing socio-economic development in the area.

Abstract

The increasing demand for high-speed broadband internet services requires reliable and efficient access network infrastructure. The Taman Asri 8 residential area in Padang City has the potential for broadband service development; however, MyRepublic has not yet deployed a Fiber to the Home (FTTH) network in this area. This study aims to design a Gigabit Passive Optical Network (GPON)-based FTTH network and develop a Bill of Quantity (BoQ) as an estimation of the network equipment required for deployment. The materials used in this study include the residential site plan, field survey data, and geographic information obtained from Google Earth Pro, while AutoCAD was employed to develop the network layout. The proposed network was designed using the Network Planning Process (NPP), which consists of requirement analysis, desktop survey, field survey, network design, and BoQ calculation. Based on the planning results, the designed FTTH network is capable of serving 212 homepass distributed across the residential area. The network design includes the determination of feeder and distribution routes, placement of Optical Distribution Cabinets (ODCs), Optical Distribution Points (ODPs), and other supporting optical components. Furthermore, the BoQ provides a comprehensive list of the required network devices and materials, including fiber optic cables, OLT, ODC, ODP, splitters, ONTs, and supporting accessories required for network deployment. The resulting BoQ can serve as a practical reference for network implementation planning and material procurement in similar FTTH deployment projects, thereby supporting more efficient broadband infrastructure development in residential areas.
