Fiber Optic Sensing: New Applications and Revenue Opportunities for CSPs and Fiber Providers in North America.

White paper collaboration with Jason Presement. Fiber-optic cables are evolving beyond their traditional role as data conduits to become sophisticated distributed sensor networks. This multi-functionality provides Communication Service Providers (CSPs) and fiber infrastructure owners with situational awareness, allowing them to monitor their networks and other critical infrastructure in real-time, enhance physical security, and develop new revenue streams through sensing-as-a-service offerings.
