Internet access today can be loosely split between the predominantly dial-up access
used by residential subscribers and the ISDN, T1, and T3 connection services
utilized by businesses.
The continuing, dramatic increase in the use of the Internet coupled with emerging
technologies, portends major changes in Internet access. A variety of copper-loop
access technologies: HDSL, SDSL, ADSL, ADSL-Lite, VDSL, and others, along
with cable modem and wireless technologies holds a promise of low-cost, high-speed
Internet access for users.
In this forum, leading industry experts will discuss their views of the future in
development of Next-Generation Internet Access products.
Among the questions addressed by the panel of industry experts will be:
Copper, cable, or wireless: Which media has the advantage?
How will the confusion of xDSL technologies be resolved?
ATM or Frame based traffic: Will either dominate?
How will systems be enabled to provide support for new service offerings?
What will be the architecture for future systems?
For example:
Router-based or Switch-based?
IP switching vs ATM switching?
Is co-location a prerequisite for providing high speed Internet access to
residential customers? And what will be the impact on Service Providers?
What will be the effects on the Internet of all this added traffic?
And ultimately, when does the panel foresee large scale roll-out of high speed
residential access services?
Ron Jeffries will be the moderator for this discussion. Ron is a Principal of Jeffries
Research, a market research and consulting company specializing in advanced
networking. He has more than twenty years of experience in the communications and
computing industries and is the editor and publisher of The Jeffries Letter, a monthly
industry newsletter.
