Re: TV only? said by NOCMan:I think they're going to run the nim's to other rooms that have cable. Of course MOCA puts everything on the same broadcast network. That could eventually be fun for customers. Broadcast storm anyone  I'm not sure what you are trying to say here. The easiest way to visualize it is to think of taking an existing network and replacing a segment of Cat5 within it by RG6 with a NIM at each end. The network will still be local to you (i.e it won't extend back past the ONT any more than it does now).
I guess that what Verizon are actually thinking is that all future ONTs will have an in-built NIM, which means that in installs where there is already coax near the desired router location, but no Cat5, it is cheaper to just throw in another NIM than to run the Cat5. |
