EPB / GigCity Question:

re: GigCity / EPB

I just got asked privately a question I don't know the answer to.

Does anyone know what the peak total upstream EPB has currently?


"Mike do you know the answer to this?

If EPB says they got 1 gig is that only locally ? So when they hit the
backbone what speed is the EPB customer going to get in reality? I
recall 48 MB as a backbone connection or something but that was years
ago."

I'm assuming they're talking about the same Aaron thats on the list.  Did
they really quote $50k for Iron Labs gig service?
