This can then be used as a tool to determine whether a city qualifies to be a self-funding city and provide a strong business case before financial approval is obtained for its open access full fiber based broadband networks.<\/p>\n<p>Using automated design software Comsof lays out and designs the routes the fiber will take through a City, providing a bill of materials and the location of the fiber runs in the metro and distribution layers. This optimization gives accurate and reliable results and will allow SiFi Networks to select the best routes and equipment required to complete a city network design quickly, saving time and increasing revenue for the business.<\/p>\n<p><em>\u201cWe recognize the Comsof platform as a very professional and credible tool that will fulfill our requirements\u201d<\/em> Mike Harris, Co-Founder of Sifi Networks commented <em>\u201cWe would like to thank Kevin Wynne for his involvement in helping to articulate a commercial package which works for SiFi Networks and its designer NetPMD\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n<p>The network and planning design process will be leveraged through SiFi Networks\u2019 designer NetPMD Ltd who will work alongside Comsof on all upcoming cities.<\/p>\n<p>Mike Mason, CEO of NetPMD said <em>\u201cIn order to accurately predict the economic viability of an area we need precise cost estimates.
