  1. Hii,

    Im Anand from Verizon.
    I worked in FiOS(Fiber Optic system) – PON (Passive Optical Network) provisioning and we provided Quadra play(Voice(pstn),Data, Video and Voip) to customers and our network is one of the best in the world.
    Great to see the world is going Fiber too, unlimited bandwidth restricted by the equips alone and a worthy investment. It has been paying us really good turnovers offsetting customer loss factors on the copper line front.
    All the best guys!! We were in the same state when we first went fiber in Texas 3 years back 🙂

    With Regards
    Anand
