Have talked about this, and the consensus seemed to be that to operate in the vectored environment that G.fast is by default the splitting will have to be the same across all lines in that pod.

I think maybe the 24 ports on that card will have to be the same, the other 3 cards "could" be different.

Mr S,

Any idea about G.Fast plans where an AIO is in use ?
Do you think they would still put a pod on the side of do you think it's likely to then be a separate unit.

It's likely going to be a few years at least before we start to see mass roll out of G.Fast I would guess. Just wondering what the business case would be and where the focus areas would be.

When you do video and photo editing for a living and need to share with clients etc then thats when you need those speeds. In many cases for me upload is more important than the download speeds.

The business tiers have better upload in some areas.

Can't be that many people relying on bog standard residential services with no SLA or expedited support to make their money now, surely?

Nothing to do with money for me, everything I do is personal. But I'd still like a decent upload speed.

AIO are probably going to have to wait until G.fast is pushed away from cabinets into footway boxes and up poles. That's my understanding but who knows what will happen in 4 or 5 years.

Plenty big enough footprint of standard PCP/VDSL2 cabinet arrangements to full fill the 10 million target.

I have a Business Line, but don't have money to burn on a FoD connection and when you work from home in a residential area you don't have that many choices.
