50Mbps... Huh?

and symmetrical 50Mbps service at an as yet unmentioned price-point.
Umm....how? Even in full blown DOCSIS2.0 you'd have a hard time getting past 10Mbps upstream.

It's not pure coax:

quote:
In the current deployed architecture, NBAN provides up to 100 Mbps of dedicated symmetric Ethernet on each of the four coaxial cable trunks in an HFC node
quote:
uses Narad's coax-based outdoor Ethernet switches, which leverage the spectrum above 860 MHz to create new, QoS-managed bandwidth. The use of a switching fabric assures data security and network monitoring needed for enterprise telecom services. The Narad architecture evolution will allow 1 Gbps or 10 Gbps symmetric Ethernet to be carried, in the last mile, over any combination of fiber, coax, and wireless transmission media.

Or where using bandwidth at all isn't guaranteed not to be considered "abuse"?

Download something off usenet using this new 50 mbit teir, and within minutes, I bet you'll be capped, or perhaps just disconnected.
