Thanks again, Dane. I can't wait! It's frustrating to be stuck on 2 Mb/sec in the heart of Silicon Valley in 2015.
Indeed! Look at Guerneville. The old CO was torn down, and replaced by a cabinet mounted to a pole, serving the entire town. It's just a remote off Sebastopol's DMS-100.dane wrote:There will never be another CO built in America, I'd say. The node or remote architecture is clearly the future.
The CO for Volcano, CA, is similar. It's just a cabinet on the edge of town. The exchange is a large area, but the Volcano Telephone Company has remotes every couple of miles down along every major road. It has been offering phone + Internet + TV to homes in its operating area for years.
