I wouldn’t call my connection to the data center a local loop. It is dark fiber running about 60 miles. So I call that element of the cost my “transit”. Maybe someday I will learn all the words...

HE and Cogent are down in the $500s now, and sometimes transport can be had sub 2k making for a reasonably priced 10G "dia" to a rural location.

Chuck; nothing market shattering, it's a ICB fish market depending on the region, the end points, sales quotas and the angle of the sun that day. DIA $1000-1700/1g, 3000-5000/10g, in a DC 10G ~$2000-2500 10g waves $1200-$3000 On Fri, Jul 8, 2022, 7:24 AM Mike Hammett < af...@ics-il.net > wrote: <blockquote> Waves or Ethernet?

Let me know if anything is of interest to you when you are ready to buy ! Att 10/100g waves are pretty competitive (or competitive for at&t) MPLS (ASE) competitive in contrast to retail and you get a free 1 or 10g aggregation port at your noc/colo (40% commit required), cool thing is you can order remote connections back to this port on att or any major lec/mso in all 50 states! similar deal available with Comcast DIA att/comcast slight discount & usually a free month Thank you, TJ Trout Volt Broadband AS62809 -- AF mailing list AF@af.afmug.com http://af.afmug.com/mailman/listinfo/af_af.afmug.com -- AF mailing list AF@af.afmug.com http://af.afmug.com/mailman/listinfo/af_af.afmug.com -- AF mailing list AF@af.afmug.com http://af.afmug.com/mailman/listinfo/af_af.afmug.com -- AF mailing list AF@af.afmug.com http://af.afmug.com/mailman/listinfo/af_af.afmug.com </blockquote> </blockquote> -- AF mailing list AF@af.afmug.com http://af.afmug.com/mailman/listinfo/af_af.afmug.com
