Re: FiOS's one mistake?

said by wtffiber :

there was an article in OSP that explained that the centralized splitters is the most cost effective way to go. That way the optical cards in the CO can be addad as needed and every channel on them used. If you have 100 cards with 4 channels used on each of them, thats a bigger waste of $ than putting fiber in the ground.
The OSP article ( »www.ospmag.com/issues/article/?a···00000353 ) has no way to know about the tiny cheap conduit that is enabled by the cascaded splitter design...
