There are several ways but it's essentially a bad boy pipe where all the heavy users can congest one another instead of causing performance issues for others.
These guys will be buying connectivity onto the FTTH network by the gigabit, take the top 5% of customers and give them 5% of the total bandwidth through QoS / Traffic Management, the other 95% are happier, that 5% upset as the usual contention ratio doesn't work for them.
Here's the first use of it that I'm aware of.
