Re: XGS-PON & "Dedicated" Service
Hi, Another way could be the splitting factor. If you work with 1:8 you have an excellent 1G connection.

Re: XGS-PON & "Dedicated" Service
Hi, It depends on the configuration of the bandwidth how dedicated it is, leaving the shared PON architecture aside. There are three different types of bandwidth on a PON Committed: always reserved, can't be used by other customers, like fixed TDM bandwidth Assured: your bandwidth is still guaranteed, but can be used by others if not needed by your connection Best-effort: you get what is left by the other two. You should ask how much of your bandwidth is committed and or assured as it can be a combination of all three in the worst case. Like 50% of your circuit speed is committed, the next 25% assured and the last 25% best effort. So the best would be to get an answer about what they are really delivering. Karsten Am 25.
