OVERVIEW
Recent estimates indicate that the installed base of ADSL lines will grow to nearly one million by the end of 2000. The compound annual growth rate of DSL for small businesses alone is predicted to average more than 400 percent through 2002, and the resulting 610,000 commercial lines will produce more than $634 million in revenue. By 2002, the overall U.S. DSL market will total more than six million lines, generating nearly $5.5 billion dollars.*
Faced with such projections, service providers of all varieties must answer the following questions:
- How aggressively should DSL service be rolled out?
- What is the best strategy for implementing G.lite? For full-rate ADSL?
- What is the consumer demand for DSL service? What is the mass-market business model?
- Which applications will pay for the mass rollout of ADSL?
- What exactly is the threat from cable modems?
- What has been learned from existing carrier deployments of DSL?
To help network operators answer these questions and meet the challenges and opportunities of DSL head on, the International Engineering Consortium is pleased to present The Digital Subscriber Line Comprehensive Report 2000. 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 Digital Subscriber Line Comprehensive Report 2000 examines the technology hurdles and marketing strategies involved in successful DSL rollout. Issues such as loop testing, network maintenance, service provisioning, and economic drivers of DSL are examined at length. By providing a range of perspectives on the promise and reality of DSL in service provider networks, The Digital Subscriber Line Comprehensive Report 2000 is a critical resource for any communications company hoping to profit from the evolving, unbundling local loop.
