Assume you have 4000 subscribers and total trunk cable length is 51.1Km, which is the PON case with example and trunk cable length will be identical regardless of whether you use PON or SS. The problem of PON is that, to efficiently share a fiber and a splitter, they must be shared by many subscribers, which means drop cables are longer than those of SS. For example, if drop cables of PON are 10m longer in average than that of SS, it's total length is 40km, which is *SIGNIFICANT*. Just as the last miles matter, the last yards do matter. Yes, a PON physical build can be somewhat cheaper, because it multiplexes your trunk cabling from 1pr per circuit to as many as 16-32pr per circuit on the trunk, allowing you to spec smaller cables. That is a negligible part of the cost. Cable cost is not very sensitive to the number of fibers in a cable. Masataka Ohta

For example, if drop cables of PON are 10m longer in average than that of SS, it's total length is 40km, which is *SIGNIFICANT*. Total drop cable length is still 11.5km and is *SIGNIFICANT*. Note that when population density is lower, extra drop cable length will be longer that 10m is now a very humble estimation. As for equipment cost, for CO PON 92000 KJPY/1150 SS 182000 KJPY/3100 and for CP PON 33200 KJPY/1150 SS 84600 KJPY/3100 not so different but SS is a little more inexpensive. Masataka Ohta

Pardon my ignorance here, but could you explain why the cables would be physically different in the last mile ? It is my understanding that the last mile of a PON and a point to point would be indentical with individual strands for each home passed, and then a drop between the cable and each home that wishes to connect. Why would this be different in a PON vs Point to Point system ? Wher I see a difference is between the neighbourhood aggregation point and the CO where the PON system will have just 1 strand for 32 homes whereas point to point will have 1 strand per home passed. But the lengths should be the same, shouldn't they ?

Its own customers are ethernet based wth DHCP service. Some of the ISPs have chosen PPPoE since it makes it easier to do usage accounting at the router (since packets are already asscoated with the PPPoE session account). The difference is that Telus had purchased/developed software that made it easy to change the PVC to point a user to one ISP or the other, so changing ISPs is relatively painless. Bell Canada decided to abandon etyernet based DSL and go PPPoE because it didn't want to develop that software. Bell is deploying PPPoE for its FTTH (which is not *yet) available to wholesalers, something I am hoping to help change in the coming months) However, the australian NBN model is far superior because it enables far more flexibility such as multicasting etc. PPPoE is useless overhead if you have the right management tools to point a customer to his ISP.

Re: The 100 Gbit/s problem in your network
I do have an suggestion for how to solve this. See my message yesterday to the mailing list. Ah, I get it, you are trying to get people to acknowledge the non-existence of your tool that does what every transparent HTTP proxy has been doing for years! ;) Where exactly do you put those transparent http proxy servers in your network? For that you do not need to do strange DNS-stealing hacks or coordination with various parties, one only has to steal port 80. There is two thing that The Last Mile Cache does _not_ do; Steal either the DNS nor the port 80 part. (I have to give it to you that it is a DNS solution part involved in TLMC as well as a reverse proxy server). It's an solution which does not force either the CSP (Content Service Provider) nor the ISP to participate in TLMC. It will tough, allow a customer of an ISP (which has to participate in TLMC in the first place) to have it's own cache server at their home. (And yes, the CSP needs to participate as well for it to work). Fortunately quite a few content providers are moving to HTTPS so that that can't happen anymore. If you want your content cached at various ISP:s around the world, encrypt the content, not the session. -- //fredan

The superbowl is the first sunday in feb, it pulls a 75 share of the tv market, about the only thing that does so it's a pretty good example of all eyeballs facing the same direction, of course it's also available via terestrial broadcast, satellite, cable RF and so forth . other than that you talking about a couple of hundred of the most popular content items, followed by a very long tail worth of everything else. While I'm pretty sure somebody in my building watches glee for example or downloaded skyfall in the last week, I'm probably the only one to have streamed a canucks hockey game from 2 weeks ago last night in 1080p.

With the game download, with some exceptions like DLC's I can't start playing until it has arrived so fullfilment is very very important, come back tomorrow when it's done downloading loses you a lot of sales.

Guess I should clarify that these are Cable Emta's. Not stand alone. On Feb 8, 2013, at 5:33 PM, John Levine jo...@iecc.com wrote: I wouldn't use them unless you have a specific reason to.

Re: Muni fiber: L1 or L2?
Jason Baugher wrote: In a greenfield build, cost difference for plant between PON and active will be negligible for field-based splitters, non-existent for CO-based splitters. If you choose to have CO-based splitters, you need to have MDF for L1 unbundling, and 1:8 (or 1:4, 1:32 or whatever) optical splitter module for PON, combination of which requires more CO space and money than SS (single star) optical equipment (just MDF). On the CO-side electronics, however... I think it's safe to say that you can do GPON under $100/port. Never ignore space and cost of optical splitters required only for PON. Note that the splitters cost even if they are located in field. Masataka Ohta
Re: Muni fiber: L1 or L2?
Jean-Francois Mezei wrote: The problem of PON is that, to efficiently share a fiber and a splitter, they must be shared by many subscribers, which means drop cables are longer than those of SS. Pardon my ignorance here, but could you explain why the cables would be physically different in the last mile ? Drop cables are not for last miles, but for last yards. Let's assume 4:1 concentration with PON. Let's also assume that 1150 subscribers are evenly distributed over 51km trunk cable, which means distance between adjacent subscribers is 44.3m. Why would this be different in a PON vs Point to Point system ? If you use SS, you need a closure every 44.3m drop cable length from which will be 5 or 10m. -C---C---C---C---C---C---C- trunk cable | | | | | | | drop cable S S S S S S S S: Subscriber C: Closure OTOH, if you use PON and have 4 drop cables from an in-field splitter, two drop cables needs extra 22.2 m and other two needs extra 66.5 m. C---C- trunk cable || || || || ^ +-+| |+-+ +-+| |+--- | | | | | | | | | drop cable | +--+ +--+ | | +--+ +--+ | | | | | | | | v S S S S S S S S: Subscriber C: Closure In this case, total extra drop cable length for PON is 51km, identical to the trunk cable length. It all depends how (initial and subsequent) subscribers are distributed, but tendency is same. As for cost for closures, while SS needs four times more closures than PON, a closure for SS is simpler and cheaper than that for PON to purchase, install and maintain. Wher I see a difference is between the neighbourhood aggregation point and the CO where the PON system will have just 1 strand for 32 homes whereas point to point will have 1 strand per home passed. But the lengths should be the same, shouldn't they ? Never ignore topology at the last yards. Masataka Ohta
