Network leverages EPB’s fiber-optic investment for triple play media and enhanced Smart Grid functionality
One of the first cities to implement municipally-owned 100% fiber-optic network; economic driver for the region and opportunity to improve energy efficiency
Fiber-optic network supports simultaneous upload and download of up to 1 Gigabit
Fast, low cost deployment of 1500 smart meters per week; self-configuring, selfhealing network streamlines smart meter implementation and subsequent upgrades
Helps industry become more efficient; TOU pricing expected to result in savings of $2.3 million a year for 22 manufacturers involved in time-of-use rate pilot
Anticipates 40% in outage reductions resulting from improved distribution system management and intelligent switch technology
Easy scalability; can support communications with the millions of data points expected to be on the network by 2012, including meters, demand response devices (i.e., smart thermostats & load control devices), distribution equipment and smart appliances

EPB Deploys America?s Fastest Fiber-optic Smart Grid - Lee Baker, Smart Grid Consultant - Electric Energy Online

You need to find out a few things. Will the fiber optic be running into your house or in your ally or maybe even a block away. Another thing, is your TV cable running off the same fiber optic? How many TV's do you have? I have fiber and it runs to behind my house then is coax into the house. That loses alot of strength. Then if your running cable to multiple TVs you can lose more there too. Just saying, they can say you're gonna get those speeds, but I doubt it. When you get your upgrade do a speed test and post it up. I'd be interested to see what it is after the upgrade.
