It hugely depends on the physical layout of the homes/area for economics of
active-E vs GPON... The scale of the outside plant aerial fiber is very
different in certain scenarios. A green field modern housing development
with everything underground might be very different than a semi-rural chain
shaped topology of GPON along a road of houses on 1 acre plots. Or an urban
townhouse development. Or a 35 floor condo tower.
