  2. The Great Infrastructure Challenge of the 21st Century? TRANSPORT COMMUNICATIONS The ability to move messages has also evolved. But we still have not made a complete break from the past. Means to communicate has evolved at an exponential rate in the last century. Today: Behind it all… Fiber Optics

  3. Why Fiber? • Reliable • Can get wet, free from electrical shorts or sparks • Immune to weather and electrical noise • Does not corrode • Green • Made from renewable sources, mostly silica (sand) • Small and light weight • More data (bandwidth) • Best ROI for networks

  4. How does fiber work? • Same concepts as any digital communication • Uses flashes of light through glass • Signal travels at the speed of light • Delivers highest speeds over longer distances • Change the end devices, push more data Fiber Optic Cable Electrical to Light Conversion Light to Electrical Conversion Electrical Pulse Out Electrical Pulse In

  5. Fiber and Broadband • Fiber is the backbone for broadband communications • Broadband (Download: 4 Mbps, Upload: ~1 Mbps) • Mbps = Millions (mega) bits per second

  6. 80%POPULATION WITH MOBILEBROADBAND ACCESS BY 2016 50%US POPULATIONWITH SMARTPHONES 350MDAILY FACEBOOK USERS 1 DAYOF YOUTUBE CONTENT = 1 YEAR FROM THE NETWORKS 150BTEXT MESSAGES SENTEVERY MONTH IN THE US

  7. IT’S A BROADBAND WORLD MOBILE DATA TRAFFICWILL INCREASE… 26x ? OVER A 5-YEAR SPANFROM 2010-2015 GROWING AT A COMPOUNDED ANNUAL GROWTH RATE OF… ? 92%

  8. Broadband and Citizens • 80% of all US citizens are connected • 40,000 SLO County citizens do not have broadband • Americans spend more time online than TV • Information gathering (news, Googling) • Applications: Facebook, Twitter, Skype, playing games • Shopping • Watching TV, movies, sharing photos and video SlowerFasterModem Satellite DSL Cable Fiber * * FCC 2012 Broadband study

  9. Broadband and Business • Need for faster upload and download • Older technologies not fast enough (DSL, Cable) • Share large data sets (images, audio, maps) • Phone, video conferencing Small Office (4-8 People) – 1.5 Mbps County Internet – 40 Mbps County Backbone – 1 Gig (1000 Mbps)

  10. Fiber across the County • Saves time and money for citizens, business, and County • Economic development, public safety, education, and enhanced services • Critical for businesses(i.e. CalPoly Technology Park)http://www.c3rp.org/

  11. Remember the Google Hype? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fM1UbJ4R0YA&feature=related

  12. The Problem • The biggest obstacle for fiber cabling is the construction required, it is neither easy or cheap to build this type of infrastructure in our topography • We’re not Kansas • The Solution of SLO County:Leverage what we have in place

  13. Existing County Infrastructure • Fiber Optic Strategic Plan • http://www.slocounty.ca.gov/it/Presentations.htm • Backbone built based on 3 separate approaches • Negotiations with private carriers • Unified Metropolitan Area Network partnership • Nacimiento Water Project partnership • Laterals (connections between locations) • County-funded • Partnerships (government and education)

  14. County Fiber Map

  15. Opportunity: Public-Public Partnerships • Education • Local, State, or Federal government • Law enforcement agencies must connect • Little shared infrastructure, even with City of SLO • Starting to share, particularly in Paso Robles Internet

  16. Public – Public Partnership Example County • Connect L3 to NWP City • Connect to water treatment, NWP water, and Paso PD & FD Superior Court • Connect to County -thereby connect to State Schools • Connect to each other

  17. Another Public – Public Example Grover Beach Amtrak / multi-modal transit center “This project will better serve the needs of both the train and bus traveler and will identify Grover Beach as an accessible destination. The project is a great example of cross-agency cooperation.” Mayor John Shoals • Connect Coastal Dunes RV Park, Amtrak, City Parks/Rec, County Health, Superior Court

  18. Opportunity: Public-Private Partnerships • Nacimiento Water Project (spare conduit) • Consortium to fund • Potential revenue to County / District • Dig Ordinance for public rights of way • Mirrors CalTrans approach • Local vendors informed about plans to dig • Opportunity to put in conduit & fiber Internet

  19. Next Steps • Talk to the leaders in your districts • Local government • Education • Groups (e.g. EVC) • Encourage partnerships (public-public-private) • Support related projects and ordinances Goal: Leverage what we have

February 1, 2011 - Presentation • Expand Broadband penetration Executive Order S-23-06 “IT IS FURTHER ORDERED that State Agencies shall cooperate in the implementation of this Order.  Other entities of State government not under my direct executive authority, including the CPUC, the University of California, the California State University, California Community Colleges, constitutional officers, and legislative and judicial branches are requested to assist in its implementation.” TransPacific Cable Landings Broadband Penetration in SLO County

  23. Dialup: 56K, at best Digital Subscriber Line (DSL):.3 Mbps to 5 Mbps Cable: Internet service from a cable TV provider 3 Mbps to 10+ Mbps Broadband: Always on access, .9+ Mbps upload, 4+ Mbps download WiFi: Wireless networking 11 Mbps up to 300 feet WiMAX: Wireless networking 72 Mbps up to 30 miles Download: Speed to get data “down” from the Internet Upload: Speed to send data “up” to the Internet Bandwidth: Measure of the volume of data being uploaded or downloaded ISP: Internet Service Provider FTTB: Fiber to the Business FTTH: Fiber to the Home FTTP: Fiber to the Premise UMAN: Unified Metropolitan Area Network Some Internet Terminology

  24. Broadband Adoption Rates • To reach 50% to consumer adoption it took: • 18 years for color TV • 15 years for the cell phone • 14 years for the VCR • 10.5 years for the CD player • 9 years for consumer broadband

  25. Broadband confusion • Bridging the Digital Divide • Adoption Rates vs. Availability • Home Availability vs. Business Availability • Availability Impacts on Education and Healthcare • Economic Development and Community Vitality • Public vs. Private investment • Chicken and the egg dilemma • No local demand = no local investment • No local investment = no services = no local demand • Local Right of Way Management and Control • Local regulations, permitting, franchising, etc

  26. How much data is there?* • “If data is the common currency of the global economy, government is rich.” • So much that we need data about our data • Way past megabytes, gigabytes, terabytes, and pentabytes • 1,200 exabytes of digital data in 2010 • 1 exabyte of data would equal roughly 10 billion copies of the Economist *Source: Public CIO - Special Report, Center for Digital Government
