The three basic Internet access technologies - DSL, Cable and Broadband Wireless - are limited in access speed.?
The three basic Internet access technologies - DSL, Cable and Broadband Wireless - are limited in access speed. Fiber-to-the-home (FTTH) technology guarantees gigabits/sec access speeds, paving the way for high-quality audio-visual services. Many companies have been investing in FTTH. Verizon offers an FTTH service. Google has been laying FTTH for a super-fast Internet. Some towns have deployed their own FTTH.
Discuss the prospects of FTTH for super-fast Internet, and its impact on other access technologies.
The City of Chattanooga says that municipal utility EPB will offer a 10-Gbps Internet service on its city-wide fiber to the home (FTTH) network. EPB Fiber Optics will support the FTTH service offering, initially available in a 600 square mile area, through use of TWDM-PON technology from Alcatel-Lucent (Euronext and NYSE: ALU).

Your Fastest connection is your Slowest link...
FTTH is just giving you a Better connection... not a Gb bandwidth for internet...
FIOS is still Internet over vDSL... able to get 50Mbps Up and 50Mbps Down.
Fiber Optics is the Physical Aspect of the Line... giving you a Fiber connection to the C/O (central office)
Of course FTTH makes your Connection to the backbone which is Fiber Optics already...
But instead of giving you Copper to the Home... they give you FTTH home...
an actual Fiber Optical "Network" can support 2.56 Tb/s
