Post 10Gbps internet -- 25Gbps or higher

Nokia is pushing 50GPON technology which are capable of 10G (true 10G)/25G/50G and even 100G with different partners.

I think hard to have it here.

Interesting video to show how an ISP works.

why not...our fibre broadband costs is cheaper than theirs!

I think yes for office and data centre but not for home,

ah ...u mean there is no use case...that I agree...

50 GPON OLT supports 50G PON, XGS-PON and GPON.

The product shows asymmetrical 50Gbps/25Gbps but later there will be symmetrical 50Gbps product.

Results shown in the video:

50GPN: 41.7Gbps download, 28.3Gbps upload.

XGS-PON: 8.5Gbps download

GPON: 2.2Gbps download

Give it another decade, we will get there, similar to the transition from GPON to XGS-PON. This also shows it was the right decision to go with fibre, because the infrastructure could be repurposed by upgrading the OLT and ONT to achieve higher speed.

That is correct. Understand that the present Nokia OLT can support up to 25Gbps and i have suggested this 25Gbps internet to SH.

OLT can support, but likely their core switch will struggle to keep up

AI mentioned just need to change the card on the OLT and the user home ONT which is quite minor upgrade.

That's not it, they would need their entire switching and routing infrastructure to keep up too, otherwise it's be QoS-ed to a much lower speed during peak periods.

yes i think peak hours will be an issue. Starhub turn down when i suggested it the first time and refer to management for review when i suggested again. I hope i can see it in 5 years time.
