Re: Clueless

G.Fast has nothing to do with the economics of small cabinets. The average G.Fast node is going to have to be up the pole (where lines are distributed aerially) or buried every 4-5 houses.

Once you get to that level of complexity you may as well run fibre and use GPON. It'll be cheaper than the work needed for G.Fast.
