Feasibility Studies: To explore reasonability and viability of a fibre-optic project

April 7, 2025by admin

Feasibility Studies form the primary foundation for a fibre-optic network roll-out project. These in-depth studies represent an evaluation of the feasibility of construction and operation of the fibre-optic network roll-out project. A comprehensive viability of the project is thoroughly analysed. Overall costs, duration and risks associated with the project are estimated, after scrutinizing through different levels of planning. Believed as the core for long-term planning, Feasibility Studies bring out the insights to help the stakeholders of the project with its optimal course, in terms of construction methodology of the fibre-infrastructure and projected capital and operational costs, as to its financial viability. A focus on the current broadband environment, identification of current gaps and potential future shortcomings and ascertaining of the benefits to economic development, education, public safety, healthcare and overall quality of life through the project also comes under the ambit of the Feasibility Studies.

OFC-deployment is a greener cabling solution with—

  • Sustainability being integral in Feasibility Studies for planning, designing, integrating and operating OFC-network systems
  • Timely RoW-permissions to maintain a project’s timeline
  • Environment-friendly processes to install OFCs through a forest, resulting in minimized vulnerabilities for its ecosystem and biodiversity
  • Lower energy-consumption
  • Focus on energy-efficiency
  • Use of eco-friendly materials
  • Reduced waste
  • Optimized transportation to lessen carbon-emissions
  • Implementation of efficient recycling systems
  • Reuse of equipment

Polycab Telecom, a division of Polycab India Ltd., is best-known for the delivery of major telecom infrastructure projects, with capabilities to roll out large telecom Infrastructure projects for both, Broadband and Wireless Networks. We’ve been regularly delivering our services for BharatNet, world’s largest rural broadband project, wherein we achieved back-to-back timely completion of projects in Gujarat and Bihar. Working currently for another project under BharatNet Phase-II in Tamil Nadu, we’re in the process to lay OFCs for around 13,920 kms, with almost 85% being aerial and the rest underground, as mandated by the TANFINET, a Special Purpose Vehicle (SPV), instituted by the state. For Polycab Telecom, preservation of environment and sustainability feature high in Feasibility Studies, which embody one of the critical bedrocks in OFC-laying and deployment.
