Reduce your carbon footprint while optimizing your connectivity.
As more companies adopt an Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG) framework, realizing the impact of embodied carbon in their real-estate investments will be an important component of achieving their net-zero goals. This white paper analyzes and discloses the estimated operational and embodied carbon impacts of integrating a building-wide, Fiber to the Edge (FTTE) network at the Corning Optical Communications (COC) headquarters building. The environmental advantage of integrating Corning’s developed composite cable solution and FTTE network design presents itself as a low-carbon, climate-resilient development solution in building design, amounting to a 6.8% reduction in whole-building life cycle carbon over a 30-year life cycle.
