Since you will be able to easily deliver 500-1Gbps on a single AP (realistically, I’d be comfortable with the 500Mbps to start), instead of delivering FTTH, deliver Fiber to the Node (FTTN) and the use wireless for the last few hundred feet. If it was a bad technical/business mode, Vivint wouldn’t be doing it. However, I don’t even think FTTN is necessary in most areas based on what I know. Keep in mind that 802.11ac CPE’s will be hitting 250Mbps or more. I don’t see 100mbps being needed for a few more years, as right now, 4K NetFlix is the only real high bandwidth app on the near Horizon.

How do you provide 50/10 service to all homes and businesses in a 3000 to 4000:1 population density area? We are 100% wireless right now but it does seem like fiber is the way things are going. Use the wireless to get a customer base to convert later and then keep wireless as a premium product where diversity is required. Until then we will continue to be a boutique player in these areas. I am excited about the new tech coming out and I'm not trying to say we won't take any advance in technology. It will help greatly in low density areas but will future wireless scale to a true high density area for someone who is going to take significant market share? For example 14000 population in 4 miles, 50% take rate, 7000 customers. 50Mbps service. 100:1 usage ratio. Is that 3.5Gbps of usage using those assumptions? Maybe, until you need to provide 100Mbps service much less 1Gbps.
