10. The method of claim 9 wherein fibers arc patched directly into gray fibers of the access fiber cable and terminate at the access fiber intermediate splice closure.

11. The method of claim 1 wherein 2 to 30 fiber distribution hubs are connected to the central office and multiple fiber distribution hubs are connected to one or more other fiber distribution hubs.

12. The method of claim 1 wherein half or more distribution fibers from the central office are for future tier 3 use.

13. The method of claim 1 wherein access fiber cables are a mixture of split and unsplit fibers and up to three access fiber cables are distributed from the fiber distribution hub.

14. The method of claim 1 wherein multi-port service terminal (MST) cable tails and DLX cables are spliced into at least one of the access fiber cables at the intermediate splice closure, the DLX cables will only be spliced into those fibers of the AF cable designated for future use and unsplit at the fiber distribution hub.

15. The method of claim 1 wherein one DLX cable is left per 30 units for multi dwelling units with less than or equal to 120 units.

16. A method for creating a network architecture wherein network material is allocated for three tiers including future network clients, the method including:

a) Establishing active optical equipment within a central office;

b) Connecting the central office to at least one Fiber Distribution Hub with at least one Distribution Cable having multiple fibers;

c) Designating a portion of the multiple fibers of the distribution cable such that fibers are allotted specifically to tier 1 demand, tier 2 demand, and tier 3 future demand;

d) Connecting the at least one Fiber Distribution Hub to a second fiber distribution hub through a distribution fiber cable intermediate splice closure (ISC) with at least one access fiber (AF) cable having multiple fibers, the second fiber distribution hub further connected to a distribution fiber cable intermediate splice closure (DF ISC) for serving at least one multi-dwelling unit of greater than around 300 service tenants;

e) Connecting the at least one Fiber Distribution Huh to an access fiber intermediate splice closure with at least one access fiber (AF) cable having multiple fibers, the access fiber intermediate splice closure designed to serve future multi dwelling units with between about 121 and 300 units;

f) Connecting from the central office one of the at least one Fiber Distribution Hub to an intermediate splice closure (ISC) with at least one access fiber (AF) cable having multiple fibers;

g) Splicing multi-port service terminal (MST) cable tails into at least one of the access fiber cables at the intermediate splice closure;

h) Connecting at least one network interface device (NID) to the multi service terminal.

17. A method for creating a network architecture wherein network material is allocated for three tiers including future network clients, the method including:
