12THANNUAL CONFERENCE March 21, 2013 Last Mile Networks and a Visionary Beginning, Maybe? Presented By: Gordon Caverly, RCDD Regional Vice-President
Capitalism This was the tool, the business model that built this great country!! Railroads, Highways, power systems, communication networks To this From this
Municipals vs. Service Providers (SP) Analogy Muni point of view – Build the communications super highway SP point of view - we want to!
The Battle Rages over network access speeds For Legal reasons the politician is not depicted, I think it’s to save his A**!!
This is what we are fighting For! 10 Gibabit per second
The Drivers of differing Business Models The Municipal position is: The Private Service Provider
Necessity is the Mother of Creation We must Build from conflict to resolution or fight forever!
Melding the Best of Both Worlds A common set of strengths for the Greater Good of All! Long term infrastructure financing in lieu of a standard 3-5 year ROI Salvage recovery of old copper plant and technology (out with the old, in with the new) Deployment of state-of-the-art fiber plant and technology Reduced maintenance operations of outside plant legacy networks for the SP Unlimited high speed bandwidth applications and service offerings A robust high speed network capable of speeds in the Gigabits+ A service network that will be able to grow with demand instead of chasing it A partnership that would seek synergy and allow all parties to do what they are best at doing!!
Something to Consider – A Broadband Authority It could be the Best of both Worlds
