Mark, I'm working on a grant application and they are wanting to see proof (and a PE stamp) on the design that it will meet performance requirements for X years. I'm very comfortable with GPON at a 32 split or less being fine for probably at least 8+ years. Just was asking if there is an industry standard way of calculating this or if everyone doesn't worry about it. I suppose it would be much more relevant if we were proposing a VDSL system instead of FTTH.
