Comment Where is end-user fiber optics the capacity limit? (Score 3, Insightful) 72
I don't know if things are better in the UK, but here in the US the bottleneck for fiber-to-end-user is rarely the link from CO to end-user.
The bottleneck is aggregate traffic capacity from CO to the backbones, an amount that has to be shared among all users.
Giving individual end users more capacity to the CO sounds like it would make the current bottleneck even more apparent.
