The Evolution of Broadband: DSL and Beyond
IEC Publications, Pages: 415
Broadband access is one of the most important issues for telecom equipment manufacturers, content and technology providers, and cable and fixed wireless operators. Any operator that fails to announce and implement a broadband strategy, including providers serving rural communities, will suffer consumer defections and a decline in retention rates for both business and residential customers. The pervasive influence of the Internet, combined with the introduction of many Internet-ready appliances, has fueled demand for broadband access. The Evolution of Broadband: DSL and Beyond, published by the International Engineering Consortium (IEC), will help senior managers, strategists, and planners understand the implementation and deployment issues surrounding broadband access and digital subscriber line (DSL) in particular. The report provides insight into the future trends of broadband and high-speed access as well as customer preferences, needs, and the desirability of value-added services offered by service providers. This in-depth resource examines the forces driving the rapid growth of broadband and high-speed access to U.S. homes and businesses. It provides an authoritative resource on the current state of DSL deployment by telecom service providers and key insights into the latest DSL technology advances. The report also analyzes the rollout strategies and market positions of the vendors and suppliers of all the variants of DSL and provides insights into the latest DSL technology advances. Features - Issues and challenges of DSL, including installation and customer-service issues - Provisioning, flow-through, and loop management - Interoperability and network architecture - Spectrum interference - Broadband applications - Voice over DSL - Home networking - Best practices for DSL deployment - MTU/MDU market opportunities - Positions of the stakeholder in DSL deployment - Demand and market drivers for broadband-access technologies Questions Answered - How did DSL develop and evolve into what it is today? - What are the differences and similarities between the various forms of DSL technology? - What is the current state of and outlook for the broadband-access market? - How are the many consumer applications available today driving the growing demand for broadband access? - What kinds of problems will the increasing demand for broadband services and applications pose to Internet operability? - What does the future business market look like for broadband-access services? WHO Should Read This Report - Incumbent local-exchange carriers (Ilec) that need to evolve their networks to meet the bandwidth requirements of both business and residential customers - Competitive local-exchange carriers (Clec) that must refine their technology and business strategies to achieve profitability - Enterprise network managers that must understand the differences between the various DSL technologies and anticipate which will be most appropriate for their networks - Equipment vendors that must stay abreast of the changing network infrastructure and keep up-to-date with the most preferred digital architectures. - Interexchange carriers (IXC) whose innovative end-to-end networks will utilize the reach of DSL into the local loop - Regulators that will shape the future of the competitive market for DSL technologies through continued policy-making - University professors whose research and courses must reflect the most recent developments in digital networks and transmission mediums About the Principal InvestigatorJudith Hellerstein is principal and president of Hellerstein and Associates, a telecommunications and technology research group specializing in market and industry analysis, competitive intelligence, and regulatory analysis of the broadband access and high-speed access marketplace.
