Re: Don't you think Verizon is few years late?
said by DavidJWood  : 1.2Gbps downstream and 622Mbps upstream PON kit is available commercially - that bandwidth is shared between all the customers on one fibre, cable modem style. David That bandwidth is available per node of 32 customers. Each node has a separate shade of light to use with the same width as previously stated.
The CATV width is the same shade across every node for a lack of a better term. While every telephone and internet node gets access to the system the same way except in a different shade.

I was inexact in my terminology, in that I presumed each node stood alone from the next somehow, and was using the term "fibre" to describe was between each node and the subscribers.
Using different shades makes sense to me. This puts a figure on the bandwidth per customer that is possible with PON technology today in a Verizon style setup.
