[AusNOG] NZ Chorus - It's time we're a Gignation

[Paul Brooks]

It already is....all the ports on all the NBN CPE are GigE capable. We can have the same thing with a few keystrokes into the billing system, no infrastructure change required...just a change of accounting.

It's all GigE capable....the only difference is we're not using it like that. And what a difference between this in NZ, and the shitstorm here when Quigley announced it was all GigE capable back in the day.
