This is counter to the TCF Spec and design of the UFB service was intended to do. least for the LSP's in which the original Alcatel-Lucent ONT is used this should never be an issue.

The original gen1 ONT was extensively tested with disparate 300/300mbit services run in parallel on each of the Customer facing RJ45 service ports with a shared 2.5Gbit Optical upstream.

I am interested to know which RSP's and in what region you have seen them request a second ONT for a new Service.

Depends on combination on RSP policy.�� Chorus say that secondary services are limited, ie if primary service on ONT is 100/100M then secondary service will be 100/50M (Not sure if this is a scaled rule or a hard rule).
Some RSPs don��t accept this and will chose to install second ONT to get primary service specs.

Subject: [nznog] Multiple connections to UFB in server room
��
Hi guys.�� A shared server room has an active UFB service for another business on the floor.�� We want UFB service to our office too.
Is an additional ONT install needed (as I'm being told by <ISP>)? Or, can Chorus just enable another port on the existing ONT and have and then run a network cable out to both routers from one ONT? Is the ONT capable of multiple PPPOE sessions to the offsite hardware?
Or is this just creating a problem that doesn't need to exist (- ie say yes to the second ONT install)?
Many thanks,
Paul Adshead.
