Hi Carlos, I realize why it's done. I merely point out that there are common configurations in which the having the FTTH NID power the POTS circuitry and drop the Internet circuitry is exactly the opposite of correct. Where instead of preserving access to emergency responders, it is intentionally designed to cut that access. Regards, Bill Herrin -- William D.
