This document proposes a new plug-and-play fiber-to-the-home cabling system as an alternative to traditional complex fiber installation methods. It notes that while some pre-terminated fiber solutions exist, the market still lacks an easy-to-use system analogous to products like Amazon or the iPhone that non-experts can install. This new system aims to simplify fiber installation for both rural and urban areas by making it as straightforward as clicking on an online purchase.
