if fios were to use the same architecture as cable aka shared service they could do 622/155Mb/s with bpon and 2.4/1.2Gb/s with gpon

edit: and that would be for each 32 customers not 250-500

Shared among 32 customers, 2.4Gbps GPON is around 400-480Mbps.

In my area the number of lines to backbone per user i've been told is capable of faster than that. In fact, they could do gigabit for 2% of customers while keeping everyone else at the current tiers.

The conduit pipes they use to connect the curbside boxes to each other and to the nodes are 4 inch diameter, the wires they use between boxes are quarter inch by 8th inch. You do the math.

Multiple and/or redundant pipes to each node.

That makes sense. But when will they offer it?
