Comparación de técnicas de instalación zanjeo y microzanjeo para la construcción de redes soterradas de fibra óptica.

Abstract

Abstract: Given the increasingly frequent use of fiber optic networks to meet the needs of connectivity and data transmission, it is essential to have methodologies for installation that minimize costs, while ensuring efficiency and reliability of the infrastructure. So, the use of underground infrastructure that offers greater protection and durability against external factors. This degree work is performs an economic comparison of traditional trenching installation techniques and microtrenching for the construction and laying of underground fiber optic networks. Whereby, The Engineering Design methodology is used, in order to structure and divide the different research and design parts. Finally, it is concluded that the microtrenching technique has a cost reduction of more than fifty percent due to the lower use of materials, labor and machinery; compared to the traditional trenching technique.
