Re: Dumb question here, be kind

said by MyDogHsFleas:

"Right now, Verizon's own data suggests that 48% of all Verizon-served homes are passed (this doesn't always mean service is available) by FiOS."

What does it actually mean for a home to be "passed" but not have service available?

What fraction of homes are in this category as opposed to those that do have service available?
For a single family home there is no difference between passed and "service available". Passed becomes relevant with the MDU marketplace where they have the fiber in the street but cannot enter the building without receiving the permission of the landlord.

So for an mdu to be considered passed they have to have the network available in the street and waiting to enter the building once permission is obtained from the owner.
