Re: [AFMUG] Future FTTH bandwidth usage standard

Here are some historical numbers Chris. I think it is possible to extrapolate future growth from this curve in percentages per year. Historical Global Internet Traffic Data, 1984 through 2014 YearTraffic (GB/mo) 1984 15 1985 33 1986 65 1987 128 1988 252 1989 498 1990

Re: [AFMUG] Small climate controlled enclosure

We have had pretty good luck fan cooling using relays. Seems very reliable, but of course will only cool to ambient temp and you have to be open to the outside. If you need a fully closed and cooled enclosure you probably will have to buy a good enclosure and purchase the cooling separately fr

Re: [AFMUG] Future FTTH bandwidth usage standard

Maybe the trend is accurate, but I don’t think you can do network planning based on GB/mo because what matters is peak traffic levels. It used to be peak traffic was Monday morning when everyone got to work and opened their email. Now it’s 8-9pm when everyone is streaming video. The other

Re: [AFMUG] Future FTTH bandwidth usage standard

That's my exact assumption. I agree that mbps at peak time is the thing that really matters, but nobody is apparently studying that. I go by the assumption that GB and mbps correlate because it's all I've got. On 8/9/2019 10:04 AM, Ken Hohhof wrote: Perhaps this doesn’t matter because monthly d

Re: [AFMUG] Future FTTH bandwidth usage standard

From what I see, throwing more bandwidth doesn't really change the video streaming. So that makes sense what the FTTH Guys say. Streams happily sit around 5-7mb/stream regardless of the available bandwidth. I've been testing this out, running multiple video streams, between 4k and 1080 TV's,

Bury it in the ground? I have a customer with a house that is mostly buried in the ground, and I think adobe houses similarly use the thermal mass of the bricks to average out t he daytime and nighttime temperatures. There have been news reports recently about advances in radiative cooling t

Re: [AFMUG] Future FTTH bandwidth usage standard

4K content is still comparatively rare (at least at high enough bit rates to really matter), that will probably eventually change, but at this point it doesn't surprise me that the actual usage on FTTH isn't that much different than what WISPs are seeing. Yeah, there are the people that "need" to h

I learned years ago that my backbone does not go up when I increase speed packages. Back 15 years ago, when we were facing heavy competitive pressures, I doubled everyone from 128 to 256 and then to 512 kbps without increasing prices. Made customers happy. Did not increase my costs. That was

Strange, my recent experience does not agree with yours or Nate’s. I find that if I increase customer speed plans, usage goes up, and nobody notices. And new customers that sign up for a 10M plan peg at 10M during Netflix hour, customers that sign up for 15M or 25M same thing. I was expecting

Re: [AFMUG] Small climate controlled enclosure

That's an interesting thought about burying it.  It would be cool, but a dry vault is heavy though.  It's needs to be sealed against ground water and that makes it buoyant, so they pour a huge slab and bolt it down to stop it floating out of the ground.  I've heard a story of an underground fue
