FYI...DSL Update...New IEC Report Examines Technologies and Business Issues Concerning xDSL Deployments <<CHICAGO--(BUSINESS WIRE)--July 6, 1999--Recent estimates indicate that the installed base of ADSL lines will grow to 500,000 in 1999 and to nearly 1 million by the end of 2000. Moreover, the compound annual growth rate of xDSL for small businesses alone is predicted to average more than 400% through 2002, and the resulting 610,000 commercial lines will produce more than $634 million in revenue. By 2002, the overall U.S. xDSL market is expected to total more than 6 million lines generating nearly $5.5 billion dollars. To help network operators meet the challenges and opportunities of DSL head on, the International Engineering Consortium (IEC) has published the 1999 xDSL Comprehensive Report. This in-depth resource is designed to help service providers and customers understand the implementation and deployment of DSL technology and how it can best benefit their network services. Written by industry professionals at the forefront of DSL development, the 1999 xDSL Comprehensive Report examines the technology hurdles and marketing strategies involved in successful DSL rollout. Among other benefits, the 1999 xDSL Comprehensive Report: -- Provides insight into xDSL deployment opportunities for CLECs and ISPs -- Offers concrete business examples of successful applications and architectures -- Explores future opportunities for DSL growth within the industry -- Characterizes the advantages and limitations of each DSL technology -- Describes the current regulatory environment surrounding the deployment of new transmission technologies -- Provides industry perspectives on the business challenges of high-bandwidth transmissions -- Compares xDSL to other competitive transmission technologies ''By providing a range of perspectives on the promise and reality of DSL in service provider networks, the 1999 xDSL Comprehensive Report is a critical resource for any communications company hoping to profit from the evolving, unbundling local loop,' said Michael H. Janowiak, IEC director of publications. Hans-Erhard Reiter, chairman and president of the ADSL Forum, an industry trade group, agrees. In his forward to the 1999 xDSL Comprehensive Report, Reiter said, ''I'm convinced that the contributions contained in this compendium represent some of the best thoughts available surrounding communications for the new millennium.'
