Re: What else is new, but just for the Present! Well, using your methods the current 4x1 bonding with 125 homes per node (conservative) nets you 1.216 Mbps per customer down, 240 kbps per customer up. Apple to apples, kthxbai.
Also, not all providers use PON. Active Ethernet systems are at 100 Mbps or 1 Gbps now. PON systems have more capacity overall but active has more non-blocking capacity, which is the game you want to play.
Oh, and for kicks, let's factor in cable not having 64QAM uploads in many areas (basically most non-Comcast territory). The result: 80 kbps of upload capacity per customer non-blocking in those areas (10 Mbps of upload capacity over 125 homes). |
