Fast@Home is a tool for automated and cost-optimized planning of fiber networks (FTTB – Fiber to the Building). Fast@Home enables stakeholders participating in broadband network expansion to automatically plan development areas quickly and easily and to determine the costs associated with various planning scenarios. Using state-of-the-art mathematical models developed by Esri Deutschland’s collaborator atesio GmbH, the Fast@Home algorithms optimize the network routes and keep the necessary construction costs to a minimum. Fast@Home serves as the basis for feasibility studies and subsequent decisions regarding investment and allocation of resources.
Automated and optimized fiber network planning with GIS
Automated network planning and cost reduction through optimized mathematical algorithms
Fast@Home users receive a cost-optimized network plan including routes, pipe, and cable locations. Network designers can access all of the planning data through Fast@Home’s built-in export functionality.
• Automated planning of large fiber networks comprising of up to 5,000 addresses in one calculation
• Computation of the potential route network based on street and address data
• Differentiating of the customer types households and businesses per address point
• Quantifying the fibers required per address• Pipe and cable algorithms:
– Micro pipes as tree structures – Micro and mini cables with parameter-defined inner diameters
Consideration of planning requirements
• Integration of existing infrastructure• Definition of distribution areas and sites• Editable maximum blowing distance• Parameterization of road segment surfaces and construction costs
Automated bill of material creation
Fast@Home serves as the basis for feasibility studies and subsequent investment decisions. All important details regarding the scope and type of the required materials, the number of potential customers, the total investment, and the cost per connection and customer are listed in the so-called bill of material (Excel).
• Overview of customer potential• Reporting of the quantitiy structure• Length and cost report
Calculation of alternative planning scenarios
Fast@Home provides a foundation for project evaluation and strategic investment decisions, thus enabling direct comparison of various roll-out scenarios, such as different area coverages: parish, district, industrial area, alternative POP locations.
Fast@Home has even more to offer!
• Modern, intuitive, and user-friendly web app• Complete integration with the ArcGIS Platform• User and permission management via ArcGIS Online• Scalable pricing model• Full export of planning data for integration with network documentation systems• Current version of Fast@Home: 1.2, released on June 13, 2016
Managed Service provided by Esri Deutschland
• Fast@Home is offered as Software as a Service (SaaS) by Esri Deutschland. No additional hardware infrastructure is necessary on the customer side.
• On-premise deployment is possible; operation of Fast@Home in your existing hardware and software infrastructure.
Features
Parameterization
Several parameters can be tailored to specific planning goals:• Choice of predefined cable and pipe types• Maximum blowing distance• Setting of costs for underground construction and road segment surfaces
by the user
Planning and infrastructure areas
Fast@Home offers a flexible planning environment, including functionality for defining areas of user-defined size or type, such as county districts or industrial areas.

Editing
Fast@Home includes an intuitive editing environment:• All planning data related to a project can be enabled for editing • Batch attribute editing for address and street data
Planning versions
Visualization and comparison of different plan iterations:• Comparison of different planning area sizes or types, such as parish,
district, industrial area, or development area • Specification of distribution areas and distribution sites
Automated network calculation
• Mandatory input: address points, street network, POP location• Optional input: distribution points, distribution areas, existing network
infrastructure• FTTB network plan (P2P architecture) automatically calculated and
optimized for cost and routing• Bill of material for each plan iteration
