Hello,

Swisscom documents it's FTTx offering [1], and writes about
500 MBit/s G.fast for the last mile in FTT[BS], or possibly
less if the fiber/copper box is a bit further away (FTTC).

As the G.fast standard is able to do 1 GBit/s, do they implement
symmetrical 500 MBit/s both directions using G.fast time-division
multi/duplexing, or is it more like 500 MBit/s <-> 50 MBit/s or
something similar to the usual VDSL offerings ?
