Re: Neighbours sharing FTTPoD costs? Possible?


[re: deleted] [link to this post]
 
In reply to a post by Bill100:
I doubt it would work like that, each ISP would want their connection to have a clear demarcation point i.e. a separate copper port, even if it is fed from the same fibre. So either you would need a multi-port NTE or separate fibres feeding single port NTEs.

When you get multiple FTTP connections from different ISP they all use the same Fibre going into the ONT.

As far as I can see the 4 WAN Port ONT has a built in 4 port (Managed maybe) Ethernet Switch where as the Single WAN Port ONT doesn't have that built in Ethernet Switch (well it might but it doesn't use it) that's what I was referring to.

So in theory connecting up a Ethernet Switch (might need to be a Managed Switch, not sure) to the WAN Port might do the same thing.
