I don't think thats quite what Skeeve is asking, by your statement if I 
installed 10 services at the house I could have 1gbit?

Assuming the question is on the single lead-in (not multiple physical 
cables coming in to service the multiple connections, and assuming that 
the multi-services Skeeve is referring is split out from single 
lead-in), that what is that lead-in capable of in a technical sense.

  I have never really dealt with HFC so I could be completely wrong 
here, but if its using DOCSIS3.0 can't it do up to like 250+mbps? 
Assuming it's artificially limited to 100mbps I'd imagine its until the 
max that the current tech allows.
