A one
one-hour panel at Networking in Coimbra on Thursday May 18th at
16:10.
Trends and
Research Issues in Broadband Access
For
residential users, SMEs and teleworkers, the broadband access to the
Internet is through ADSL. It allows best effort access to the Internet
and in many cases, VoIP services.
The trends to the triple play with broadcast TV and Video on Demand
require more bandwidth and better QoS.
Which solutions will prevail ? FTTH, FTTC, Š. ? PON or
Active Ethernet ? Ethernet Transport or Ethernet Service ? Cable
operators or legacy operators migrating to IP/MPLS ? Will Broadband
Access Operators also provide Contents ? Will Broadband Access
Providers charge Contents Providers ?
