Verizon IPTV is called FiOS
Telephony Online reports that Fiber now passes more than 6 million North American homes and that homes connected directly to fiber has surpassed 1 million. For all of you that likes to keep up with the techno mumbo jumbo; that is known as fiber-to-the-premises (FTTP).
That represents a nearly 51% increase over the past six months and a 213% increase over the past year.
Much of the domestic growth is attributable to one company: Verizon Communications. Their triple play that includes IPTV is called FiOS. FiOS is an Irish word for "knowledge". Also, FiOS is an abbreviation of Fiber Optic Service.
On average, FTTP users tend to spend about $370 more on consumer electronics related to FTTP after they become subscribers. FTTP users are also happier with their service than users of broadband architectures.
