    Fiber is going to be key to 5G roleouts, but how many existing property addresses can already be cost effectively connected to fiber for high speed broadband?  In some cases the answer is a surprisingly high amount.   Are you maximizing the ROI of you're existing fiber network?  If you could quickly determine how close every property address was to your existing fiber how much impact could this have on existing and future service and coverage levels?   Have a read of this short article to find out more.
