This is the best summary I could come up with:

Google’s Wednesday blog post calls this part of a “GFiber Labs” experiment and says the service “will initially be available as an early access offering to a small group of GFiber customers in select areas.”

The 20Gbps service is made possible by new networking gear: Nokia’s 25G PON (passive optical network) technology, which lets Internet service providers push more bandwidth over existing fiber lines.

Customers will need new networking gear, too, and Google says you’ll get a new fiber modem with built-in Wi-Fi 7.

For now, Saporito says the service is “a very early adopter product,” but it will eventually roll out “in most, if not all, of our markets.”

According to that Fierce report, Fiber is built on Nokia’s “Quillion” Fiber platform, which is upgradable, so Google only needed to “plug in a new optical module and replace the optical network terminal on the end-user side” to take its 5 and 8Gbps infrastructure to 20Gbps.

As always with Google Fiber, this is a symmetrical connection with 20Gbps down and up, so you can create content, like posting a YouTube video, in a flash.
