Thats because it will probably be 2 bonded T1's or a Fractional T3 linking C.O's to the Core and then...Juice Boosted carrier Pigeon to and from The Net. Oh, and the Pigeons will be oversubscribed 12:1. |

| Backhaul someone said was an OC12. But PON is split by 32 homes to get 20MBPS per user so Im confused by that statement. Will PON have 20MBPS guaranteed per user or would it be a shared OC12 to the CO in which case it would be slower than dialup with that fiber ? |

1 edit | Someone told me that when it gets outside the CO's ring to the internet, its on an OC12 for FIOS which handles the data for multiple CO's. I do know that CO's do have rings capable of OC48 however and beyond. But the question is will the route to the internet be on such?
On DSL I do know that the DSLAM's are all fed by a T3/DS3 and those often got overcrowded. Verizon likes to SQUEEZE profits so I wouldnt be surprised to see overcrowding on that FIOS line like what happened with DSL when they should have upgraded the DS3/T3s to the next level. |
