Re: FTTN & hybrid VDSL has promise

said by morbo See Profile :

keeps cost low TEMPORARILY. eventually, all these homes will have to be re-wired. the cost of labor to do this will be astronomical no matter if they do it today or in 5 years. so what's the true benefit in waiting?
So what is the benefit of going ahead NOW if the cost is STILL going to be astronomical?

There is a limit to the CAPEX available.
