Berlin, Deutschland Fraunhofer-Gesellschaft Vollzeit

**Future. Discover. Together.**

Building networks of the future will use optical fibers to connect individual rooms (Fiber to the Room, FttR). The fiber network will be designed as a passive system with an aggregated data rate of 100 Gbit/s. A central aspect here is the Gbit rate. A key aspect is the quality of the connection (jitter, latency) in order to meet the high requirements, especially in the medical and industrial sectors. In the 5G-COMPASS project, such a network is being developed and built. Be a part of our team and come on a journey of research and innovation
