Re: why don't they?

"How about Phone and TV, do you want Verizon to run Coax too?" Of coarse they have to run Coax what do you think connects to there STB's and other equipment. Sounds like you are just as narrow minded...

Research is your friend. We'll wait until you come back with a correction to your statement.

Oh hell...I'll just do it now. They run fiber to the unit which carries all services--HSI, Phone and Video--and that's been an installation sticking point with traditional fiber. The new "bendable fiber" has alleviated some of the installation hassles. Any coax or copper phone wiring is inside the apartment.

What are you saying? that with this new "bendable fiber" they are going to run this to the cable boxes and modems and so on and so forth. if the answer to that question is no then you are just reiterating what i said previously. it is common knowledge that they run FTTH or to mini node in the home.

Verizon would run bendable fiber (Google about it - it does exist) to the node, but most likely leave it up to the home owner/tenant to get their equipment connected to said node.

... or charge a handsome fee to do it for them.

Heckler, you're all lost, this has to do with buildings and apartments. Avd706 said he didn't understand why Verizon doesn't pull Cat5 from the basement or each floor connection into the apartment. I guess the thinking was this would cut cost or be easier, but he was only thinking about Data and it would defeat the purpose of FTTH. Verizon runs Fiber to each apartment, then from there inside wire is used for each Product (Data, Voice, & Video.)
