Ignorant questions:
1) He showed that he can achieve 700ish Mbit/s at his place. Does it mean that the 20 subscribers of his service are sharing this? If he wants to increase the overall throughput does he have to place more fiber cables?
2) Did he use any sort of repeaters to deal with the attenuation of the signal?
- mayoff 6y agoI believe he said he's paying for 1.5 Gbps capacity over a 10 Gbps uplink (though it's currently only set at 1 Gbps and needs to be fixed). So the maximum shared bandwidth is 1.5 Gbps, but he has physical headroom if he needs more.
- jaredmauch 6y agoOptic swap to the 10G was today. I won't disclose what the usage is but with everyone live there is tons of headroom. The redundant carrier and construction is underway as well.
- calmoo 6y agoGreat talk, enjoyed it immensely. Say you wanted to increase the bandwidth of the line, would this simply be a matter of running the another length of fiber through the existing conduit?
- jaredmauch 6y agoOr swapping the optics. Today they swapped from the 1G to 10G. I can use other strands or run them in the second conduit we installed.
- jjeaff 6y agoI have read that you can put hundreds of people on a single gigabit backhaul and give gigabit to all of them and you will rarely run into problems.
- jaredmauch 6y agocan confirm the shape of this assertion. Having a 10G even if rate-limited to something just over 1G gives the burst. When my son got a new laptop pre-school starting we could see those updates and game downloads on the graph, the other homes were just noise.
