Laurent,
If a 10G port for transit is paid by comcast $30/Mbit/s monthly that's 0.19 cent/internet customer/month for a new 10G port to properly desaturate this particular link.
Did I compute something wrong?
Laurent
Yes, now you need to multiply that by the numerous other ports that have the same conditions and need upgrades.
If I look at: http://www.ams-ix.net/statistics/ That's 1.2 Tbit/s peak for European biggest IX so 120 10G ports so about 22 cent/customer/month assuming Comcast alone generates this kind of bandwidth and pays what mom & pop AS pay for transit. It still doesn't compute to me... Laurent
