Hi Sal,
Thanks for the response. The 'Broadband' in Broadband Laboratories actually refers to the Microwave flavor of last-mile and long-haul data transmission. As a general operating philosophy, we eschew wired last-mile network solutions (DSL, Cable) as inefficient, costly to capitalize, and costly to maintain. For example, the local cable company spent over $100m for an HFC buildout of our local market which only covered 30% of the metropolitan area. I could probably cover 25 of the top metropolitan markets with that kind of capital :) Regards, Christopher J.

I would think that a CIO of a company named "Broadband Labs" would have a lab in which to experiment with cable. > My current thoughts on this are to digitize the satellite video into > mpeg2 and deliver it over TCP/IP through the in-ground cable. What about the neighborhoods with above-ground cable, how would you deliver service to them? Sal Sabella Get your free encrypted email at https://www.hushmail.com
