Re: Same as MDU FIOS deployments?

The older MDU installations place the ONT in the utility closet. Fiber runs to the ONT. Data runs to the unit over VDSL2. Video runs to the unit over coax.

If they have not run fiber to the unit yet, they would not do so on the day of the install, as it requires a massive effort and they would almost certainly do all the units at once. Since this is difficult in existing condominium buildings, most generally use the VDSL setup.

With my setup I can watch an HD VOD movie plus get 20/5 Internet simultaneously. Note, this was not working properly for a long time until a phone tech (former DSL tech) realized something was wrong with my DSL config. The new FiOS techs who never worked with DSL were stumped.

My building is a brand new deployment, they just ran the fiber about three weeks ago. My understanding is that they ran fiber to the utility closet on each floor, so we will see what happens tomorrow.
