Differences..!

And it continues to change. In this area, direct fiber-to-the-customer
is becoming the standard; many homes here have no copper
communications and little if any radio reception at all. Everything
comes through the fiber - telephone (multiple lines if you want),
highspeed internet, and TV. The fiber is RFI-and EMI-immune, too. The
biggest headache they present for us hams is that sometimes the
switching power supply for the customer equipment is electrically
noisy.

The biggest headache for the subscriber is that all of the eggs are in
one basket and all it takes is some bozo with a backhoe to sever the
cable (trunk or drop) and everything goes away.
