What is the SLA for FIOS? I believe that FIOS uses either PON or GPON technology where a single data wavelength is split up to 32 times resulting in a shared pipe back to the CO. Does Verizon offer any SLA at all for FIOS? On the other hand Verizon Wireless offers BGP peering for business customers, but lacks geographically-dispersed peering points with their wired network, which results in unusually high round trip latencies.

I realize this might be a bit of a fool's errand, but I'm trying to determine if Verizon will speak BGP with FiOS business customers. Their website is relatively lean on details. Everything that mentions BGP points to VZB services, which does not appear to include FiOS. Looking at the routing table, I do see several non-VZ ASNs downstream of AS19262, so it looks like it might be possible.
If that is the case, could anyone lend any insight to get past the "what is BGP?" response that likely awaits from their salescritters?
