Re: Cheap FTTH solution

PON FTTH is still pretty new. In the US Verizon is the only major Telco rolling out PON.

I think very few if any of us posting on BBR actually work with product or vendor selection.

It is my understanding ONTs are modular but major cost is in optics and power supply which are no much affected by which services are provided.

GPON looks like the best choice short term because it dramatically increases speed and eliminates ATM. Volume production is the only way for costs to come down.

One of the reasons for Triple-Play services are attractive is it amortizes FTTH capital cost over more service.
