I am trying to perform some capacity planning for some of our
residential pops, but the old calcs I used to use seem useless -- as
they were adapted from the dialup days and relied upon a percentage of
users online (~50%) and a percentage of concurrent transmission (~19%).
My present scenario involves a micro-pop terminating 250 residences
where users are expecting 4 mb/s. So I am looking for some baseline to
begin at, so I am wondering what others are doing.
Any thoughts are appreciated.
Thanks
