Accelerating Monetisation of Fiber-To-The-Home Investments
Automating FTTH Networks Operations for Maximum Benefit to All Stakeholders

Delivering Commercial Success and Public Outcomes
Fiber Owners
-
IFA enables service providers to connect using standardized interfaces (technical, operational and commercial) with guaranteed service levels. On-boarding ISPs takes hours not months.
Service providers and investors love the idea of expanding user base without laying expensive fiber; network owners want to offer this win-win scenario to ISPs.
Focus on building and maintaining network – not selling services.
Service Providers
-
IFA ensures your network fills faster and starts generating revenue sooner by attracting service providers quickly, enabling rapid customer activation, and ensuring seamless operations from day one.
Fiber network owners dream of staying in their comfort zone (infrastructure) and letting someone else handle marketing, billing, and support.
Reach new customers without any investment in infrastructure.
Governments
-
IFA operates networks on an open-access and neutral host basis - meaning that public investment and public assets can be leveraged by many service providers on a fair, transparent and non-discriminatory basis.
A core goal is to end single-provider monopolies. Clients talk about open-access fiber like a public road: one network, many providers, and customers finally have options.
Give community more choice and better service by inviting multiple ISPs.

Not at all. You remain in control of your network’s vision and have full transparency. We work in the background as your specialized operations team. You’ll get clear reporting and dashboard access for live metrics, so you can see performance, uptake, and revenue anytime. Think of IFA as working for you and with you – your network, your rules, just expertly managed by us.

Faster than you might think. We can typically integrate new service providers into your network in a matter of weeks (sometimes even hours for ready partners). Our platform is designed for speed – ISPs get up and running quickly, and customers can start signing up right away. That means you begin seeing new revenue and activity on your fiber network almost immediately, rather than waiting months or dealing with tedious setups.
