Actually the equipment vendor's build in this sort of situation is normally directly related to the availability of 
affordable chipsets from the likes of Broadcom. For example the chipset in my XGSPON router is a BCM6858. No vendor is 
going to spend money to produce a CPE that no one will buy. Once the likes of Broadcom produce an affordable solution 
then all the main vendors will roll out CPE in short order.


If vendors saw a 10GbE CPE market, they would serve it. Obviously they don’t see a market. Why don’t people insisting 
vendors build their hobby horse see that? It’s like they’re being >deliberately obtuse :)
