Triple-play to MDUs/MTUs requires the right equipment

摘要

The market for triple-play ser-vices for multiple-dwelling unit/multitenant unit (MDU/ MTU) customers presents a substantial opportunity for carriers. According to the National Multi-Housing Council, 14% of all U.S. households are in MDUs, making the potential market about 16 million homes. Triple-play service penetration in FTTP installations has been estimated to be around 30%. If MDU sub- scribers follow that pattern, the market penetration will be a little more than 5 million subscribers, a significant revenue base for service providers.
