A Fiber to the Home (FTTH) transport system based on Radio over Fiber (RoF) is proposed for a cost effective access network as cost remains an important issue in this type of network. Furthermore the installation process gives dissatisfaction among end user which house need to be drilled in other to pull the fiber inside the house. Traditional FTTH is to pull the fiber into the end user’s house in other to give better performance and high speed. Obviously, this approach will increase complexity and cost. By using Radio over Fiber (RoF), system complexity and cost is greatly reduced at still give high performance and better quality. Nevertheless, this project shows that the quality is still adequate for access network in high speed. Wireless bridge source is modulated using 5.8 GHz data from the Central Base Station (CBS) and provide high speed between fiber drop points.
