Fiber is future proof but not human proof.. As the users continue to gravitate more to handheld devices, the actual value of fiber as a last mile connection for the end user is a sliding graph towards 0.
Wireless connectivity will continue expand in different iterations like 5G, 6G and other upcoming technologies like LTTH and LTTD (LEO to the home and LEO to the Device). <- I just coined both terms!

First we had nothing, then along came dial-up and that was amazing and many companies sprung up offering the service. Giants like AOL and Prodigy. Then DSL and Cable came along as well as wireless and dial-up has all but died. Now DSL is basically dead, cable and wireless have gone through several iterations and we are seeing a push to fiber. What’s the possibility in the next 10 years cable and wireless will be dead technologies with fiber at the fore front? Possibly. But then..... is fiber really future proof? We are talking about investing hundreds of millions into fiber infrastructure, because it’s “the future”. But is it? So far every technology delivery mechanism to date has become obsolete in as little as 6-10 years. -- AF mailing list AF@af.afmug.com http://af.afmug.com/mailman/listinfo/af_af.afmug.com<http://af.afmug.com/mailman/listinfo/af_af.afmug.com>
