An Updated Proposal for Fibernet Project
1. We are going to take an OSP License and IP-1 Registration
2. We focus on maintaining Central Server and Nodal Servers ,their connectivity and Synchronisation. Let ISPs handle connectivity to users.Everything goes legal this way.
3. Revenue Model a) An OSP can directly charge from users b) ISPs can share revenue with us c) Advertisement-Not Feasible at start
4. First data center in Gurgaon [still under debate], Initially for gurgaon Server, 100 TB capacity of Server and 50 GB space per user and speeds around 15 Mbps per users which is maximum achievable through a 1:64 symmetrically multiplexed
GPON.The Server will be kept in DLF Area so that direct connectivity from Data Center can be provided to users conveniently.
5. We have received a positive responce from a Category C[Gurgaon] ISP to act as our ISP partner for start.Although no revenue model has been finalized.
6. Yes, The Website has not been updated to this new plan
1. Good.
2. Fine.
3. Fine.
4. This is all concerned with last-mile stuff. You say in one line that users will use their ISPs, yet in another line that you'll build a massive GPON network (BTW, no-one does 1:64, also, 15mbits at 1:64 is wrong, that would be 1:128), still in another line you'll say that ISPs can provide a two-tier service with normal web access + high-speed access to Fibernet at whatever speed their technology can handle... so... which is it? Correct me if I'm wrong, but either you're building yourself a cable network and will become a cable operator, or you're not, in which case, where does BSNL fit in? They don't do this kind of thing. Seriously, been there, tried that, and I'm not the only one.
5. Excellent. If questions can be cleared up, even I may be interested.
Why not ..
1. It does not cost them anything
2. If they dont , they are most likely going to trail behind
1. Neither does peering with the likes of
Google, Yahoo and Facebook, but I don't see any ISPs offering high-speed un-metered connectivity to Youtube yet (except us).
2. Not really.
