Re: I can't help but to see it differently One simple soulution. ITS ALL COPPER AT SOME POINT in the network, whether it be at the node or at the side of your house. Docsis 3 is needed by the cable companies, also the general population is not too technical, people just want the service to work at a decent price....most of the people that point the finger and say FTTH is better than FTTN might be technically minded but blind when it comes to knowing how all topologies work. Docsis 3 is needed, less homes per node passed also is needed but to have full blown fiber to the home, only time will tell whether that is the true way to go or save some cash and launch similar services on existing infustructure. Also too, Cable companies built their fiber networks when it was expensive and more cost effective to build a HFC network. 5 yrs from now if the cable companies decide to upgrade to fiber to the home or even fiber to the tap things will be that much more cheaper. Verizon is taking a risk at all or nothing when it comes to this. I defend both FTTH and FTTN but there is alot more coax has to offer than one may think!
