  6. Optical Systems for Access NetworksMarket & Business Drivers (1) • Getting PSTN, data and cable TV together on one system at competitive prices (convergence) • Fibre To The Home (FTTH), to the Curb (HTTC) to the Business (HTTB) are the next step for many operators (very high bandwidth) • The major change is driven by the explosive growth of the Internet usage (users demand) • Public and private networks evolve from multiple overlay networks to a unified network platform able to carry multiple applications (services) Arab CoE Workshop on DSL Technologies and Applications – Cairo, 4 - 6 March 2003

  7. Optical Systems for Access NetworksMarket & Business Drivers (2) • IP routers and ATM switches are providing higher and higher speed optical interfaces • Major carriers are realizing that services at STM-16 (2.5 Gbit/s) and optical pipes may well represent more than 50% of the bulk bandwidth entering networks in the near future • The new high speed data requirements are requiring a new category of Wavelength Services (WDM/extended optical bands) • These new services will require new networking functions (performance monitoring, fault localization, network restoration, etc) Arab CoE Workshop on DSL Technologies and Applications – Cairo, 4 - 6 March 2003

Typically: • within limits of a single optical span • often less than 200km distance. • signal regeneration, in-line amplification and error correction are of lesser importance than in Long Haul Optical Networks • Maximized coverage commensurate with low cost connectivity • Combined with the wider variety of client signals is a key driver for flexible aggregation (e.g., 100Mb-1Gb rate), higher bandwidth interfaces for inter office • Bandwidth-on-demand services, and multiple classes-of-services leading to further topology and technical considerations.

  28. Unbundling of NE Issues • Laws permitting competition among traditional incumbent operators and Other Licensed Operators (OLOs) • “Co-location” of Incumbents and OLOs in the same buildings, using same network and infrastructure • Regulators • Establish that parts of the network be shared by operators in a transparent process to the users Arab CoE Workshop on DSL Technologies and Applications – Cairo, 4 - 6 March 2003

  29. Regulatory implications • Despite low levels of access, unbundling pertinent to Dev Countries • New economy and information society dependent on access to Bandwidth • Depending on the quality of the copper network other physical media to be considered (optical, wireless) • Sound infrastructure planning and innovative regulation to provide equitable access • Local operators to become globally competitive • Convergence Telecom/TV broadcasting for access Arab CoE Workshop on DSL Technologies and Applications – Cairo, 4 - 6 March 2003

  31. Local Loop Unbundling (LLU) • Process where the incumbent operator makes its local network (the copper cables that run from customers premises to the telephone exchange) available to other companies. • Operators are then able to upgrade individual lines using DSL technology to offer services such as always on high speed Internet access, direct to the customer.
