Re: Insight Research Abstract on "Customer Premises Fiber" insight-corp.com Selected quotes: In the commercial segment we are witness to a throttling back in demand for new copper and fiber installations as many of the largest companies--those that typically are its heaviest users--have completed much of initial installations. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ The home market represents a new frontier for structured cable manufacturers; and the high double-digit growth rates associated with the segment are sure to attract many new players. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ The Telecommunications Industry Association (TIA) has recently released its 570A standard for home cabling, which recommends the type of home cables to be installed. The cable recommended for [residences] is a hybrid consisting of Cat 5 UTP and RG-6 coax. The UTP cable could carry voice and xDSL data signals throughout the home, while the coax cable could distribute the video signals and a cable modem service. As an option, fiber cable could be pulled for future proofing, but INSIGHT believes fiber will play only a very minor role in the home market.
