Re: The Bush FCC essentially KILLED LIne sharing! said by patcat88:Fiber unbundling isn't possible in most cases. Verizon's FIOS system is a PON, 32 users per fiber back to the CO sharing the same bandwidth pool and 870 mhz coax pool. How do you unbundle that? You allow the signal at the CO end to be routed to the non-Verizon ISP just like you used to sell dry copper to the other companies by hooking the incoming wire to their equipment at the CO or allowed another TelCo to use your last mile wires for phone service. |

What happens when someone is pumping live blu-ray 24/7 through their CLEC shared with ILEC PON connection? Can the ILEC cap the CLEC's/customer's connection? Whose AUP/TOS will apply? Who determines what abusive usage? What about SLA? What happens if the PON strand is congested everyday from 2 PM to 10 PM and the ILEC doesn't want to upgrade anything? What can the CLEC do? Will cries of net neutrality come from the CLEC? |

Will cries of net neutrality come from the CLEC? So is shared PON the new "load coils"? In other words, the ILEC's way of making sure even if the law is changed, it's going to be difficult and costly to implement? -- USNG: 16TDN2870 Find your Lat-Long: Geocoder |

They could have done active FTTH, where the CLEC can rent a F1 virtual circuit from the SAI to the CO, where CLEC and ILEC traffic are never in the same packet switched domain. Or home run FTTH like in france. |
