DSL in the World

DSL is growing
World Wide DSL reached 115 Million lines by Sep2005 (DSLF) World Wide DSL growing to 500 Million lines by 2010 Leading deployments: Korea, Taiwan, Hong Kong, Japan,

Changes making it easier to install DSL

DSL was slow initially due to ATM backbone complexity DSL Forum focused on auto-configuration, interoperability DSL has in the last year greatly reduced truck rolls to the point where we now have 95% self install ADSL CPE is standards based with lower cost equipment with many options including wireless networking resulting in increased take rate

Market Trends (Faster + Value Add)

Faster Higher speeds standards (ADSL2+ and VDSL2) Better spectrum management (RE-ADSL part of ADSL2, ADSL2+) SHDSL (Single Pair High Speed DSL) Bonded Services (2, 3, 4-pairs of ADSL or SHDSL) IP/Ethernet versus ATM transport Value Added Services Application Service Provider (ASP) Remote Backup (Internet Disk Drives to Managed Services) Videoconferencing (voice / data / video) Voice over IP (VoIP) i.e. BroadVoice, Vonage, Skype, Video over IP, Video on Demand (VOD), 2-way TV Security monitoring (DOS attacks) and Virus Scanning Services IP VPN (Internet Protocol Virtual Private Network) Secure, encrypted (AES, DES3), authenticated with certificates

Microfilter
ANSI T1E1.4 standard http://www.pulseeng.com/ Example: DSL Rocket by Pulse Also: Suttle, Excelsus, 2Wire, Corning/Siecor, Wilcom, Lea Microfilter placed in front of each telephone Microfilter gives clear voice quality, caller ID, call waiting Microfilter allows for user self install of the DSL modem 70% self install being reported by several telcos
