6/23    If SBC provides fiber-to-the-node (FTTN) service, and the node is split
           \_ Verizon calls this FTTP (fiber to the premise).
        to 500 residences, what is the bandwidth to the node, and max
        bandwidth from a node to the customer premise?
        \_ it all depends on how many strands of fiber and what
           they run over that fiber. too many variables to speculate
        \_ The City of Burbank uses fiber extensively bc of all their studios
           and stuff. They have hundreds of strands going all over. They could
           easily provide 100mbps or even gig to homes. The limitation would
           probably the cost of the upstream bandwidth. Isn't that also the
           case with DSL?
        \_ Why do you hate high bandwidth?
           \_ because nerds love it.
