Rewiring your home is generally not necessary for fiber optic internet installation. Fiber optic service usually connects to an Optical Network Terminal (ONT) at your home, and from there, the signal can be distributed using your existing wiring, such as coaxial or Ethernet cables. You cannot replace the ISP-provided ONT with a traditional cable modem, but you can connect almost any wireless router for fiber internet to the ONT's Ethernet port. The technician powers, tests, and activates the connection to confirm full speed and signal quality. * In some instances, the ONT and the router are all in the same device, generally called a combo unit.

All fiber optic cables have specifications that must not be exceeded during installation to prevent irreparable damage to the cable. Most CATV systems are analog optical conversions of coax signals, so reflectance of connectors is a big problem, requiring APC (angled PC) connectors.
