"I believe that the
first guy that offers fiber to the home (FTTH)
to their customers may be the last guy that ever
serves that customer. Hear from those who have
actually deployed FTTH technology and from those
who use it for business, for education and for
entertainment. These are the pioneers, these are
the experts, and these are the visionaries."

"Three
years ago I literally bet my company on FTTH -
a company that had been growing at 75% annually
designing and building HFC (hybrid fiber coax)
networks for municipalities and overbuilders. I
want you to know it has been a good bet for us,
and it is a good bet for you... Just imagine the
possibilities."
