[AusNOG] NBN again

[Nick Stallman]

Technically the NBN's FTTP is using GPON (a single fibre split up to say 
32 times).
Which is also a shared medium. A 2.4 gbits fibre divided by 32 does not 
equal 100mbit each.

Then the backhaul from the POI is equally a shared medium (and people 
already see backhaul congestion).

If you don't want shared mediums, go for dedicated business links.
Otherwise *everything* is a shared medium regardless of technology.
