Uncertainty about how to design residential internet infrastructure to support fiber-to-the-home without over-engineering or creating future problems.
No clear standard or best-practice guide for integrating fiber-ready pathways into new residential construction, leading to uncertainty about whether to pull traditional cabling or install conduit for future ISP use.
Workarounds Described
- pulls traditional coax and cat6 instead of conduit
- asks forums for advice
Implied Software Gaps
- A design tool that provides fiber-ready infrastructure blueprints specific to local ISP requirements
FiberReady Pro
A mobile/web app that provides step-by-step infrastructure blueprints for residential fiber-ready builds. Electricians and low-volt installers select house type (new build, retrofit) and local ISP requirements, and get a customized diagram showing exactly where to place conduit, pull boxes, and cable endpoints. Integrates with material takeoff tools to generate a shopping list. No more guesswork or callbacks from ISPs.
- House-type selection with ISP database for fiber requirements
- Auto-generated infrastructure diagram (conduit paths, box locations, cable types)
- Material list generator with local supplier prices
- Photo documentation for as-built records
- Shareable plan for homeowner and ISP technician
