Re: An advantage of FTTH is to end copper maintenance Lines can be cut, but I will say POTS worked for 5 days while the power was out all over Orlando after the hurricanes. No "8 hour" crap. I think if Verizon gave a damn about their customers, they would have developed this in a way so that people not only could switch back to POTS, or another carrier, but they would also make it more reliable by providing power for the OTN thru their own copper. Never did I say it was a "guarantee" but I do know POTS has a higher uptime and reliability than FiOS, and thats because it's ran off the telco's own power stations (in most cases). I don't claim this is the case for EVERYONE, but if you're connected to the CO, and not an RT, I can guarantee the phone will work in a power outage unless a tree takes down your F1 or F2 pair, or your CO gets clobbered with falling trucks from a tornado...
