Re: Fios and Cell Towers

Yes, not only for their own towers, but for others:

Fiber to urban towers is relatively easy. But as the towers get further out, running fiber to them all starts getting expensive and also will take quite awhile. I see railroads getting quite a bit of money(as they already have in the past) charging for conduit along the rights of way of all their branch lines. But litigation will always intrude: »www.progress.org/optic01.htm During the last 20 years, about 85 million miles of fiber optic cable were installed in the United States, 33 million of them in just the last year. And until now, the landlords making profit from fiber optic have been railroad companies. They quietly lease their rights of way to telecom carriers.

microwave-backhauled pops. set up a central distribution site with microwave gear for pos/sdh and run fiber from that. depending on spectrum, its very possible to push oc-1 speeds via microwave. split that out as you see fit.
