Hi ftth,

from switchpointnetworks.com

"A standard Ethernet or other coaxial cable is then installed, as well as SwitchPoint cable, which reaches to neighborhood hubs and to distributed switches located at each subscriber's curb. Common Cat5e wiring schemes can then connect the network to a subscriber's home or business. "

Bury a proprietary "SwitchPoint" cable, "And while SwitchPoint technology is currently capable of delivering speeds up to 100 Mbps, the network architecture is fully scalable, and has a near-term upgrade path to 1 Gigabit per second (Gbps) and beyond."

perhaps by replacing the electronics on both ends?

The old proprietary cable game.
