| Who cares about 2013? What consumers care about today is 100-250gb data caps implemented by cable companies.. they care about application throttling & deprioritization.. they care about out of control price increases and rental fees.. they care about higher than average voip prices..
Docsis 3.0 upgrades will not be bought on the backs of data cap overages charged to customers... what this will do put more customers in the hands of their competition in the footprint. As far as deployment of head-end, cmts and modems? This will only happen in competitive areas.. DSL areas need not apply. This includes many outer banks of U-Verse land. 80% is a little optimistic given that we have no firm numbers from the other 70% of the cablemodem market: Cox, Charter, Cablevision, Time Warner, etc-- all of these except part of cablevision & tw are deep in the heart of Verizon FIOS Land (which will probably about to something more than 20% of the industry).
The handwriting is already on the wall.. if a telco is content to do up to remote terminal & fttn 20mbit dsl-2 .. docsis 3 will not be coming to upgrades near you. |
