[Business] Re: FIOS scheduled for Bronx NY yet?

A two family home is considered a private home so you should be able to get the service awk_boy. Do you have utility poles in front of your block? This would make putting service in easier. 167th street CO covers your area ddg4005 that area has many apartment buildings so it may be a while before Fios gets to your area even though you have what would be considered a private home.

Blaqueknite:

Do you know by what method Verizon will deploy Fios to apartment buildings? Will it be an ONT for the building and the use of existing coax cables? What about in the home? Will an RJ-45 jack be installed or will the existing phone jack be used?

I ask these questions because I read that Verizon would use different methods for getting the service into MDUs.

Thanks again blaqueknite. Glad to hear that 2 family homes are not considered MDU's.

To answer your question, yes there are utility poles. No underground work necessary!

Is there any way I could volunteer to pilot FIOS in the area?
