A2D Private Campus Networks

Bring on the services. Develop with fiber.

Home developers are finding that communication amenities are becoming a key differentiator for their customers. Trends show that the first generation of digital solutions, from DVDs to DSL, are only interim. Customers increasingly prefer “piping in” a greater diversity of entertainment and information resources from games and first-run movies, to real-time classes at leading universities. These services, which are already bandwidth-constrained today, will require a fiber-optic infrastructure, capable of delivering ultra-high bandwidth speeds, up to 100 megabits per second. In contrast to other access solutions, fiber can bring to the home the multi-megabit speeds already possible through properly installed in-house wireless and home-run wired networks. Many homeowners can already use broadband access as simple and easy as turning on the tap or flicking a light switch. Installing fiber goes far beyond typical telecommunications functions, but is not strictly limited to high-end residences. Building affordable access for home entertainment and information systems is becoming a factor in low-to-moderate income single-family residences as well as multiple-family dwelling units at many price ranges.

FTTH deployment is particularly attractive economically to the home developer: the cost of deploying optical fiber into a new home development is on parity with copper cable, and offers infinitely greater short- and long-term utility to the community. With the lower operating and maintenance costs of optical fiber, the FTTH infrastructure you bring to your home developments will be an attractive feature to content and service providers and network operators.

The Key Differentiator of A2D versus other FTTH engineering firms is simple, we are in business to form a partnerships with the developers for the sole purpose of developing a fiber network that can be easily financed within the developer’s development budget that once built, will generate long-term residuals for both the developer and A2D.

A2D Networks are designed to be service provider independent. This means that A2D controls the last mile. However, A2D is not and will not ever be a service provider. Instead, A2D has created a separate entity named Intelligent Community Enterprises, Inc (ICE) whose sole responsibility is to operate and maintain the disparate private campus networks that are design/built by A2D. ICE, in turn, solicits multiple service providers to connect to our networks and then charges a flat access fee per month, per service to the service providers. Here, the net profits are then shared with the developer. In addition, all easements and network infrastructure and equipment are jointly owned by the Developer and ICE, not the service provider.
