Re: It the SINGLE links that are fragile, not the fiber
said by yabos  : they cut corners to save money. Which they pay for later, many times over, in emergency repair costs, customer refunds, and meetings on how to avoid similar failures in the future.
Beyond that, sooner or later the "pipe" is full and you have to run a second link anyway... after months of slow speeds or capacity issues for the current customers... not to mention all the future customers turned away.
Also, a single link usually means a single provider. High prices usually follow the lack of competition.
Then again, that means higher profits for the company with the only link out of the area....
