In the case of installing a new long haul fiber optic network, a great deal of money is at stake. Not only is the initial capital expenditure (CAPEX) large, but operating expenses (OPEX) and the cost of future upgrades of transmission equipment must be taken into consideration. In these networks, the costs of optical cable are relatively low. Studies show that they make up approximately one to three percent of overall spending, depending on the optical fiber count in the cable.|In the case of installing a new long haul fiber optic network, a great deal of money is at stake.
