Masataka, Numbers? Examples? This is simply incorrect in many places. The only reasons to run PON are financial, since Ethernet out performs it, are you saying that all greenfield PON installs are cheaper done as Ethernet without exception?

There is no need to pay them off quickly.In addition, as PON is even less efficient initially when subscriber density is low and there are few subscribers to share a field splitter (unless extremely lengthy drop cables are used, which costs a lot), PON is slower to pay them off.
