[Re: NGN97 News]

Steve -

I also picked up on the Cat-5 line as being worrisome. This line could
be cause for more concern.

The pilot network has shown that a carrier's business model can
support 200 ADSL lines per DS1 circuit.


A DS1 is 1.544 Mbps. If all ADSL lines were active, each user would
be limited to about 7.7 kbps! This is an admittedly unlikely scenario,
but even with 10% usage, throughput is less than ISDN. Am I missing
something here?

Rob

P.S. Several new home developments in my area offer a "home network"
option that includes Cat-5 wiring to every room!
