Fibre networks
The context is a press kit about a contract to operate and maintain a fibre network. This term is a caption to a diagram showing the rollout of fibre across a French department.
I think my problem is that I haven't yet found a satisfactory translation for NRO - noeud de raccordement optique. So if I understand correctly, the NRO is a node that houses the equipment used by providers to acrtivate fibre broadband access for its subscribers. So the zone arrière would be the area & houses covered by a specific node. Not sure of the industry-specific jargon in the UK however?
Any help much appreciated!

optical junction node service zone
That's how I would say it. I want to say "hinterland" though.

FTTN
(Fiber To The Neighborhood or Node) The installation of optical fiber to a junction box (node) in a neighborhood that serves a few hundred customers within a radius of about a mile. The connections from the node to the customer premises often uses DSL over existing telephone wires or coaxial cable (DOCSIS) from the cable company.
FTTN Vs. FTTC
If the radius of customers served by the node is less than a thousand feet, the service is typically called "fiber to the curb" (FTTC). See FTTx.
