Re: Fiber Types

Fastest type of fibre? Dunno - they all pretty much sit still.

Sorry - probably not that funny...

Anyways - 40 Gbps (OC-768) is the fastest system in place right now, and multiple OC-768 wavelengths can be combined on a single fibre (upto about 16, currently, I believe)

That's backbone/long-haul equipment. For FTTH deployments, google GPON. That's the most common technology for FIOS-type deployments...
